"Das süße Gefühl des Mitleids": Schmerz und Stellvertretung

"The sweetness of pity": pain and representation

Abstract

"Schmerz, Krankheit, Behinderung und Leiden scheinen ohne Begleitung von Mitleid und Stellvertretung nicht vorstellbar. Schmerz ist leichter fassbar als Leiden, aber er gilt als ebenso unergründlich. Sind demnach Mitleid und Stellvertretung als Folgereaktionen diffus, unsicher, sogar unmöglich? Lieg... view more

"Schmerz, Krankheit, Behinderung und Leiden scheinen ohne Begleitung von Mitleid und Stellvertretung nicht vorstellbar. Schmerz ist leichter fassbar als Leiden, aber er gilt als ebenso unergründlich. Sind demnach Mitleid und Stellvertretung als Folgereaktionen diffus, unsicher, sogar unmöglich? Liegen sowohl die Gewissheit wie die Problematik des Mitleids und der Stellvertretung in deren mangelnden oder agilen Rechtfertigung? Bezug nehmend auf Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-1781), Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778), Adam Smith (1723-1790) und Edmund Burke (1729-1797) versucht der Autor, diesen Fragen eine problem- und ideengeschichtliche Form zu geben."

"Pain, disease, disability and suffering seem hard to imagine without pity and representation. While pain is easier to grasp than suffering, it is still as incomprehensible. Are pity and representation therefore diffuse, uncertain, maybe even impossible? Or do the certainty and difficulty of pain and representation just lack a proper justification? Taking into account the history of ideas the author tries to answer these questions referring to Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-1781), Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778), Adam Smith (1723-1790) and Edmund Burke (1729-1797)."
