Hardback. Condizione: New. If suffering is one hallmark of the human condition, another is the virtue of compassion, which disposes persons to suffer the pain of others as partly their own. In Choosing to Feel, Diana Fritz Cates draws on an Aristotelian-Thomistic foundation to develop an original theory of compassion as she explores how persons are able-and why they would want-to deliberately orient themselves toward the co-suffering of another person's pain. Cates opens with an account of virtue which examines what it means to choose to feel a passion according to the measure of practical wisdom. She goes on to explore the nature of friendship and some of the impact that Christian faith can have on one's view of self and others. Cates then integrates her view of virtue, friendship, and compassion in a way that specifies what someone who is good at being compassionate does and does not choose to feel as someone who intentionally binds him or herself to other persons. The book focuses primarily on the com pas passion that persons feel toward friends, but it culminates in an analysis of compassion for strangers and enemies. Throughout, Choosing to Feel promotes conceptual clarity and depth of understanding regarding what compassion is, how it can be cultivated, and why it should be cultivated as part of a full human life. Scholars and students of religious, theological, and philosophical ethics will appreciate this study for its unique combination of rigorous philosophical analysis and attentiveness to the complexities of lived moral experience.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. All of us want to be happy and live well. Sometimes intense emotions affect our happiness--and, in turn, our moral lives. Our emotions can have a significant impact on our perceptions of reality, the choices we make, and the ways in which we interact with others. Can we, as moral agents, have an effect on our emotions? Do we have any choice when it comes to our emotions? In "Aquinas on the Emotions", Diana Fritz Cates shows how emotions are composed as embodied mental states. She identifies various factors, including religious beliefs, intuitions, images, and questions that can affect the formation and the course of a person's emotions. She attends to the appetitive as well as the cognitive dimension of emotion, both of which Aquinas interprets with flexibility. The result is a powerful study of Aquinas that is also a resource for readers who want to understand and cultivate the emotional dimension of their lives. …

Paperback. Condizione: New. In these essays, a diverse group of ethicists draw insights from both religious and feminist scholarship in order to propose creative new approaches to the ethics of medical care. While traditional ethics emphasizes rules, justice, and fairness, the contributors to this volume embrace an "ethics of care", which regards emotional engagement in the lives of others as basic to discerning what we ought to do on their behalf. The essays reflect on the three related themes: community, narrative, and emotion. They argue for the need to understand patients and caregivers alike as moral agents who are embedded in multiple communities, who seek to attain or promote healing partly through the medium of storytelling, and who do so by cultivating good emotional habits. A thought-provoking contribution to a field that has long been dominated by an ethics of principle, "Medicine and the Ethics of Care" will appeal to scholars and students who want to move beyond the constraints of that traditional approach.…
