Seneca, On Anger Book 2 - Three Movements Of Anger - Sadler's Lectures

Sadler's Lectures - A podcast by Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler

Categories:

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On Anger, book 2 It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 2 about his discussion of the three stages or movements involved in the emotion of anger. In the first stage, we grasp an appearance and are affected by it in some manner that can lead to anger. The second stage involves judgement, reason, will, and assent, and we have some control at this point. The third stage is the full emotion of anger, and is at that point outside of the control of the angry person To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 2000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Seneca's On Anger - amzn.to/3smh6M8
