Meditaciones morales de Descartes: pasión y auto conservación de la vida

the hypothesis held in the current study is that descartes is truly concerned about moral matters; that his moral meditations involve a doctúne on the passions of the soul and a conception of life as well, both of them intrinsically tied up. thus, my pupose is as follows: first, to show that it is possible to reconstruct crucial aspects of descartes’s moral meditations after the analysis of his copus doctúnae: that his moral stand involves a new conception of the passions. secondly, i shall underline that ethos y pathos are connected in his úews; that this connection is explica in descartes’s ideas of practical knowkdge, namely, in the sort of praxis recon as ？the exercise ofúrtue？, the ？úvre heureusement？. thirdly 1 mili approach the question on wherein does cartesian morality lye? ？is it a matter of concepts, judgments, character, education, action and practical wisdom, or rather a question of the intúnsic properties of things and human agents, or even a mixture among some of these?
