Envy, a complex and multifaceted emotion, has been the subject of extensive philosophical inquiry. Traditionally, much of the focus has been on how the envier perceives, thinks about, or schemes against the person envied. However, this book proposes a novel phenomenological analysis of envy that takes a more comprehensive approach. It articulates envy's essentially comparative character, allowing us to incorporate the role of the envier into our understanding.
This approach offers three significant contributions. Firstly, it develops a notion of two predominant ways in which envy expresses itself: one that is harmful to the envied and the other that is harmful to the envier. Secondly, it renews the traditional defense of the view that envy is bad or vicious. Thirdly, it provides original phenomenological descriptions of the differences between envy, covetousness, indignation, emulation, resentment, and jealousy.
To support these arguments, the author draws on a wide range of literary sources and social scientific literature. Through these examples, the author provides concrete illustrations of the lived experience of an envier, shedding light on the nuances and complexities of this emotion.
This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in ethics, moral psychology, phenomenology, and philosophy of emotion. It offers a fresh perspective on envy and provides valuable insights into this complex and often misunderstood emotion.
