Description

Explore the deep connection between human feeling and athletic performance with Emotion in Sports: Philosophical Perspectives. Published by Routledge, this groundbreaking work is the first to examine the role of emotion in sport through a philosophical lens. It investigates how emotions like joy, anger, and despair affect athletes and their mental constitution. This book connects modern sports experiences to foundational ideas from history. Readers can study how Aristotle's concept of catharsis relates to the sports field, or look at power through the lens of Nietzsche. It also examines existentialism as discussed by Kierkegaard, providing a framework for understanding how emotions are expressed during competition. This text is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of ethics, philosophy, and the human experience in athletics.
