List of emotions - NOTE

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

This is a list of emotions.

According to Robert Plutchik's psychoevolutionary theory, the basic eight emotions are:

• fear (or terror, shock, phobia)
• anger (or rage, which can be directed to the self or others)
• sorrow (or sadness, or grief or depression [which some people think of a separate emotion-see depression)
• joy (happiness, glee, gladness).
• disgust
• acceptance
• anticipation
• surprise

According to Book Two of Aristotle's Rhetoric, the emotions are:

• Anger vs. Calmness
• Friendship (Love) vs. Enmity
• Fear vs. Confidence
• Shame vs. Shamelessness
• Kindness vs. Unkindness
• Pity
• Indignation
