ABSTRACT

The objective of this study is, as an attempt for constructing a new paradigm of culture, to study emotion from the sociological perspective. During the Enlightenment era, emotion was in a sense a foe or a servant to reason and rationality. So it was something that had to be constantly suppressed or controlled by the reason. However, after the coming of post-modern time, the emotion has been reestimated so that its place and role may be teated properly both in personal sector and in public sphere. This revaluation took place in the area of Philosophy and Sociology, and this study also is a part of the attempt. For this end, this study analyzes a person as an holder of emotion in Jacques Lacan’s theory on the subject, and investigates the role and power of emotion in private and societal sector with the help of Erving Goffman’s theory on dramaturgical metaphor and Emile Durkheim’s sociology of culture. In addition, the implication of this study for Christian studies is also examined. Consequently since the power of emotion is significant, sometimes more significant than the reason, the role and place of emotion has to be dealt properly in its relation to the reason.
