2 It includes several subclasses such as passions, emotions, feelings, affections and so on. It is characteristic that what R. here calls émotion, he elsewhere calls sentiment or passion or affect. Similarly, aidôs is both émotion (and émotion morale) and sentiment (p. 46); anger is both sentiment (p. 61) and émotion (p. 63). On p. 76 R. sees more widely and speaks about ‘affections, des émotions et des sentiments dans l'action’.
3 For R. thumos is once emotion, once moral emotions and, on another occasion, certain moral emotions.
