摘要:The importance attributed to the emotions is one of the more significant developments in the western contemporary culture. However, the re-evaluation of the sentimental and emotional dimension in human sciences begins around the mid of the 70ies: up to that moment it was professed a theory of social action based on the concept of an actor meant as a rational, reflexive and prescriptive subject; therefore his emotions and feelings were considered as residual and often troubling elements diverting the rational goal directed action (Turnaturi 1995). On the other hand, for a very long time the logical thought has been considered as an ordinary condition of the mind that, subsequently, would be disturbed by the passions, while it’s necessary to think that our perceptions pass through the emotions too and that these last are not an external addition: cognitive processes are involved into the emotions, this means that emotions and cognitions are not incompatible and opposed1 (Frjida 1993, Bodei 1997, Furedi 2004, Hochschild 2003).
