Geometry of the Passions investigates the paradoxical conflict-collaboration between passions and reason, and between individual and political projects. Tracing the roles passion and reason have played throughout history, including in the political agendas of Descartes, Hobbes, and the French Jacobins, \u003ci\u003eGeometry of the Passions\u003c\/i\u003e reveals how passion and reason may be used as a vehicle for affirmation rather than self-enslavement. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Remo Bodei\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487503369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487503369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/26\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 1.70d","brand":"Remo Bodei","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48449667105023,"sku":"9781487503369","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_573a3d0d-30d5-41cd-9de9-ce0bf095cccb.jpg?v=1777264395","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/geometry-of-the-passions-remo-bodei-9781487503369","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
