Max Scheler, Ressentiment - The Christian Conception Of Love - Sadler's Lectures
May 15, 2025
13:49
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century German philosopher, sociologist of knowledge, and phenomenologist, Max Scheler's work Ressentiment, which provides an interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of that same name. It focuses on his discussion in the third part of the work "Christian Morality and Ressentment" of the transformation of the conception of love brought about by genuine Christianity, that is, the movement oriented by the teachings and example of Jesus of Nazareth. He contrasts this against the pre-Christian conceptions of love found in Greek and Roman culture.
