Description
Dietrich von Hildebrand's The Heart is a seminal philosophical work that explores the human person and their affective life. For too long, philosophers have viewed the heart as inferior to intellect and will, but von Hildebrand argues that it has many different levels, including an eminently personal level where affectivity plays a vital role in personal life. In this accessible yet important contribution to philosophical understanding, von Hildebrand seeks to rehabilitate the affective life of the human person. He contends that affectivity is not merely a product of the body, but rather a fundamental aspect of human existence, essential for our personal lives and relationships. This new edition of The Heart, published by St. Augustine's Press in collaboration with the Dietrich von Hildebrand Legacy Project, offers a valuable insight into the philosophy of one of the most important Catholic thinkers of the 20th century.
