Sadler2025-06-2815 minSadler\'s LecturesSadler's LecturesMax Scheler, Ressentiment - Sources Of Ressentiment - Sadler's Lectures - Sadler's LecturesThis lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century German philosopher, sociologist of knowledge, and phenomenologist, Max Scheler's work Ressentiment, which provides an interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of that same name. It focuses on Scheler's analysis of two main sources of ressentiment, namely the desire for revenge, on the one hand, and envy, jealousy, and the competitive impulse. There are other affects that can figure into ressentiment as well, that Scheler identifies, such as hatred, malice, spite, the urge to detract, and schadenfreude.

It focuses specifically on a common argument people make to excuse their own lapses into anger and bad temper, claiming that in Scripture God is said to get angry at people. Cassian's response is to point out that these passages are not to be taken literally, any more than are passages making other similar anthropomorphic claims about God. Instead, the divine anger is not to be understood anthropopathos, that is, along the lines of human passions or emotions.

He tells us: "Character is that which reveals moral choice - that is, when otherwise unclear, what kinds of thing an agent chooses or rejects (which is why speeches in which there is nothing at all the speaker chooses or rejects contain no character); while thought covers the parts in which they demonstrate that something is or is not so, or declare a general view.

He writes: "The definition of recognition was stated earlier. As for its kinds, first is the least artistic and the one used the most from uninventiveness: recognition through tokens....The second kind are those contrived by the poet, and hence inartistic. ... The third kind is through memory, when the sight of something brings awareness...Fourth is recognition by reasoning ­. . .There is also compound recognition which depends on th...2024-01-2914 minSadler\'s LecturesSadler's LecturesJohn Cassian, Institutes Book 8 - When Anger Is Appropriate - Sadler's LecturesThis lecture discusses the late ancient monastic theologian, John Cassian's work Institutes of the Coenobia, book 8, "Of The Spirit of Anger".

I use "embellished'' for lan­guage with rhythm and melody, and "distinct forms" for the fact that some parts are conveyed through metrical speech alone, others again through song."
