schadenfreude self pity shame shock shyness social connection sorrow suffering surprise suspicion trust wonder worry v t e sorrow is an emotion feeling or sentiment sorrow is more intense than sadness implies a long term state 1 and suggests unlike unhappiness a degree of resignation 2 moreover in terms of attitude sorrow can be considered halfway between sadness accepting and distress not accepting 2 cult edit romanticism saw a cult of sorrow develop reaching back to the sorrows of young werther of 1774 and extending through the nineteenth century with contributions like tennyson s in memoriam o sorrow wilt thou live with me no casual mistress but a wife 3 up to w b yeats in 1889 still of his high comrade sorrow dreaming 4 while it may be that the romantic hero s cult of sorrow is largely a matter of pretence 5 as jane austen pointed out satirically through marianne dashwood brooding over her sorrows this excess of suffering 6 may nevertheless have serious consequences partly in reaction the 20th century has by contrast been pervaded by the belief that acting sorrowful can actually make me sorrowful as william james long ago observed 7 certainly in the modern anglo emotional culture characterized by the dampening of the emotions in general sorrow has largely given way to the milder less painful and more transient sadness 8 a latter day werther is likely to be greeted by the call to come off it gordon we all know there is no sorrow like unto your sorrow 9 while any conventional valeoftearishness and deathwhereisthystingishness would be met by the participants looking behind the sombre backs of one another s cards and discovering their brightly colored faces 10 perhaps only the occasional subculture like the jungian would still seek to call up from the busy adult man the sorrow of animal life the grief of all nature the tears of things 11 late modernity has if anything only intensified the shift the postmodern is closer to the human comedy than to the abyssal discontent the abyss of sorrow 12 postponement edit not feeling sorrow invites fear into our lives the longer we put off feeling sorrow the greater our fear of it becomes postponing the expression of the feeling causes its energy to grow 13 at the same time it would seem that grief in general is a taming of the primitive violent discharge affect characterized by fear and self destruction to be seen in mourning 14 julia kristeva suggests that taming sorrow not fleeing sadness at once but allowing it to settle for a while is what one of the temporary and yet indispensable phases of analysis might be 15 shand and mcdougall edit sadness is one of four interconnected sentiments in the system of alexander faulkner shand the others being fear anger and joy in this system when an impulsive tendency towards some important object is frustrated the resultant sentiment is sorrow 16 in shand s view the emotion of sorrow which he classifies as a primary emotion has two impulses to cling to the object of sorrow and to repair the injuries done to that object that caused the emotion in the first place thus the primary emotion of sorrow is the basis for the emotion of pity which shand describes as a fusion of sorrow and joy sorrow at the injury done to the object of pity and joy as an element of sweetness tinging that sorrow 17 william mcdougall disagreed with shand s view observing that shand himself recognized that sorrow was itself derived from simpler elements to support this argument he observes that grief at a loss is a form of sorrow where there is no impulse to repair injury and that therefore there are identifiable subcomponents of sorrow he also observes that although there is an element of emotional pain in sorrow there is no such element in pity thus pity is not a compound made from sorrow as a simpler component 17 see also edit grief regret emotion suffering references edit anna wierzbicka emotions across languages and
