E-book Emotions in Korean Philosophy and Religion : Confucian, Comparative, and Contemporary Perspectives
he nature of emotions was generally criticized in the Western tradition of philosophy. This criticism of the emotional part of human nature and experience is known to have its root in the mainstream Platonic tradition. In other words, it has championed rationality/reason against emotional-ity/emotion, especially from certain scholarly standpoints. The Western dualism of reason and emotion is Platonic in the sense that it endorses the antagonism between reason and emotion, as Plato in the dialogue Phaedrusdescribed emotion and reason as two horses pulling us in opposite direc-tions. Plato and Neo-Platonism clearly placed the highest value on rea-son/thinking over emotion/feeling based on the mind-body dualism.
