Abstract

The affective, psychological and moral dynamism of the person goes through the levels of appetite, to be later sublimated by the theological virtues, and especially by the virtue of charity. Human love, made of passion and will, of reason and sensibility, the exquisite act of the person, is elevated and sublimated by this virtue. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to show how virtues represent the proper and excellent way to sublimate the passions, since by themselves the latter cannot fly to heights to which the human being is called.
