@mariapopova Superb masterpiece from #Nussbaum. It’s interesting that, on the one hand, #Sartre is one of the those anti-#stoical philosophers who saw #emotions as detached from #reason & therefore akin to, eg, #hysteria & #rage, whilst on the other hand, now with his #existentialist hat on, Sartre’s classic work on #JeanGenet sits more comfortably with what we might call Nussbaum’s ‘neo-stoicism’ (she may have called it that herself). Outstanding thinker working on the coalfront
