摘要

摘要:《李尔王》对传统消极情感的刻画预示了现代认知主义情感理论的出现，现代认知主义情感理论认为情感是智能的和战略性的。在描绘极端的情感表现时，该剧不仅质疑斯多葛派对激情的看法，而且打破了文艺复兴时期普遍存在的激情与理性之间的鸿沟。在两个强烈情感的例子中——李尔王的愤怒和格洛斯特伯爵的绝望——莎士比亚探索了两种不同的应对苦难的策略。最后，这部戏剧从核心上驳斥了斯多葛主义，否定了让位于激情意味着放弃谨慎、自我主权和身份的假设。

The Intelligence of Negative Passion and the Collapse of Stoicism in King Lear

Abstract:The portrayal of traditionally negative passions in King Lear anticipates modern cognitivist theories of emotion, which argue that emotions are intelligent and strategic. In depicting extreme displays of emotion, the play not only questions Stoic views about the passions but also shatters the divide between passion and reason that existed widely during the Renaissance. In two examples of strong emotion—the wrath of Lear and the despair of the Earl of Gloucester—Shakespeare explores two different strategies for responding to suffering. The play, finally, refutes Stoicism at its core, repudiating the assumption that to give way to passion means surrendering prudence, self-sovereignty, and identity.

期刊介绍： SEL focuses on four fields of British literature in rotating, quarterly issues: English Renaissance, Tudor and Stuart Drama, Restoration and Eighteenth Century, and Nineteenth Century. The editors select learned, readable papers that contribute significantly to the understanding of British literature from 1500 to 1900. SEL is well known for thecommissioned omnibus review of recent studies in the field that is included in each issue. In a single volume, readers might find an argument for attributing a previously unknown work to Shakespeare or de-attributing a famous work from Milton, a study ofthe connections between class and genre in the Restoration Theater.
