Abstract

The collapse of culturalism and historicism necessitates return to the forgotten basis in human nature, in human feeling. some theses: elemental emotions are the same in men of all times and places; each is arousable in humanly stereotypical situations and is genetically independent of the others; reason is the agent of the passions; the emotions include a concern for others; our only imaginable goal is the satisfaction of our enduring and major passions
