The Passions of the Soul and Other Late Philosophical Writings | Rene Descartes

'Those most capable of being moved by passion are those capable of tasting the most sweetness in this life.'This volume also includes both sides of the correspondence with Princess Elisabeth of Bohemia, one of Descartes's keenest disciples and shrewdest critics, which played a crucial role in the genesis of The Passions, as well as the first part of The Principles of Philosophy, which sets out the key positions of Descartes's philosophical system.
