ABSTRACT

This study attempts to draw the affection of the chronically mentally disabled based on the affect and reason that are the basis of Spinoza's philosophy of practice. To this end, this study examined the structure of Spinoza's affect and reason based on the 3rd and 4th parts of Ethics, and examined the affection of the chronically mentally disabled according to this structure. The affect and reason of the chronically mentally disabled were being affected into the combination and preservation of affect and conatus, the power of affect, the foundation of a personal reasonable life, the foundation of a human reciprocal reasonable life, the evaluation of usefulness, the development of a personal reasonable life, the development of a human reciprocal reasonable life. It turns out that by combining the passive and active Spinoza speaks, that is, through passive affect and active reason, the chronically mentally disabled must confront his or her life.
