Summary: | Hate is a complex feeling, right from its definition, its boundaries, its characteristics. In its outward movement it implies a specular inward regurgitation, since, as Hermann Hesse wrote in Demien, when we hate a man, we hate in his image something that is inside us. There are those who consider it potentially productive (analogous to the Hegelian power of the negative, one might say), but it is something that always entertains an irreducible relationship with the destructive, which has a specific, subjective profile, but produces its effects in the spectrum ranging from the individual to a multitude, which feeds as much on words as on actions. In the 20th century and the third millennium, then, it is as if we had witnessed an acceleration of the processes through which hatred produces its destructive effects, in certain respects conditioning, in both direct and indirect ways, the social contexts in which it emerges (or is intentionally nurtured). From these premises, in this article, I will delve into some components and elements that can be included, in a preliminary and synthetic way, in a discourse on hatred, focusing on the possible emotional and neural roots of this sentiment, as they can be configured from aesthetic and psychological research. |
