摘要
This paper shows the close relationship between morality and emotions, as emotions were defined and understood by classical Greek and Roman philosophers (specifically, Aristotle and the Roman Stoic Seneca). Particular attention is paid to the nature of anger, and also to the distinction between full-fledged emotions, which depend on rational judgments and which, accordingly, only human beings are capable of experiencing, and what the Stoics called “pre-emotions,” which were common to human beings and other animals.
