Ralph Brooker<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://indieweb.social/@mariapopova" class="u-url mention">@<span>mariapopova</span></a></span> Superb masterpiece from <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Nussbaum" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Nussbaum</span></a>. It’s interesting that, on the one hand, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Sartre" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Sartre</span></a> is one of the those anti-<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/stoical" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>stoical</span></a> philosophers who saw <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/emotions" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>emotions</span></a> as detached from <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/reason" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>reason</span></a> &amp; therefore akin to, eg, <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hysteria" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hysteria</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/rage" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>rage</span></a>, whilst on the other hand, now with his <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/existentialist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>existentialist</span></a> hat on, Sartre’s classic work on <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/JeanGenet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>JeanGenet</span></a> sits more comfortably with what we might call Nussbaum’s ‘neo-stoicism’ (she may have called it that herself). Outstanding thinker working on the coalfront</p>
