- W62440947 abstract "‘What is it to be human?’ This most Aristotelian of questions divided the Aristotelian sciences. Early modern discourses of the passions (what might now be called the emotions) occupied an uneasy borderland between the mental and the bodily, the rational and the physiological, the intellectual and the appetitive. Neither one thing nor the other, the passions moved ambiguously in a state of constant liminality. ‘These passions then be certaine internall actes or operations of the soule bordering vpon reason and sense … causing therewithall some alterations in the body.’1 Thomas Wright’s The Passions of the Minde of 1601, the longest treatment in English of the period, struggles even to locate its subject: are the passions properly of the body (since they are expressed in physical movements of, say, the blood in the face or the heart) or of the mind (since they appear to be caused nonetheless by some mental motivation)? The association with psychological activity raises the passions above mere instinct or mechanism, and yet in the process drags the mind down into an indecorous connection with organic pathology. For the passions are uncertainly rational, and intrinsically unruly, threatening to spread their disease to the highest faculties: ‘the inordinate motions of the Passions, their preuenting of reason, their rebellion to virtue are thornie briars sprung from the infected roote of original sinne.’2" @default.
