First, it deals with the emotion of anger within the sphere of feelings and explains its place, taking into consideration the divisions of feelings as defined by St. Augustine and St. Thomas. Within the moral aspect, it discusses the experience of anger within oneself in the context of stoic science, and then anger in subordination to the spiritual powers of man, taking into consideration the contamination of human nature by sin. The article goes on to discuss the moral issue of the validity of using anger, showing both its harmfulness and utility. The final section discusses the moral and spiritual science of living without anger, presents their arguments, then briefly shows a way to master anger through a spirituality focused upon love for God and one's neighbor. A particular key is the&nbsp; perfecting of one's relations with others by the practice of “small virtues”, which serve to restrain anger.</p> ER -
