Resumo: In the present work, I will review how Aristotle understood the connection between reason and emotion - particularly, angry actions - in order to demonstrate that it is due to the presence of intellectual factors that emotions become ethically relevant and not merely an uncontrolled reaction. Then, I will summarize Aristotle's repeated analogies between reason as the master and anger as the slave to explain their connection. My specific contribution to the topic will be to reverse this analogy and, instead of using it as an example of the lógos-thymós connection, make the latter an example of the despótes-doûlos connection as described in Politics I. If my hypothesis is plausible, establishing the actions and virtues of a slave will help shed light on the type of morality inherent in angry actions.

Luego reseñaré las repetidas analogías de las que se sirve Aristóteles entre la razón como amo y la cólera como esclavo para explicar el vínculo entre ambas. Mi aporte específico al tema consistirá en invertir dicha analogía y, en lugar de utilizarla como ejemplo del vínculo lógos-thymós, hacer de este último un ejemplo del vínculo despótes-doûlos tal como se lo describe en Política I. Si mi hipótesis es verosímil, establecer las acciones y la virtud propias del esclavo nos ayudará a echar luz sobre el tipo de moralidad propio de las acciones coléricas.Cátedra UNESCO Archai (Universidade de Brasília); Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal; Annablume Editora, São Paulo, Brasil2023-11-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticlesArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/5226110.14195/1984-249X_33_22Revista Archai; No. 33 (2023): No. 33 (2023): Archai 33 (2023); e03322Archai Journal; n. 33 (2023): No. 33 (2023): Archai 33 (2023); e033221984-249X2179-4960reponame:Revista Archai (Online)instname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBspahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/52261/39337Copyright (c) 2023 Esteban Biedahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBieda, Esteban2024-01-15T20:31:41Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/52261Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archaiPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/oai||archaijournal@unb.br|| cornelli@unb.br1984-249X1984-249Xopendoar:2024-01-15T20:31:41Revista Archai (Online) - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
