This philosophical analysis will clarify the concept of hope by dealing with its involvement in knowledge, ethics and metaphysics. We will reflect on whether hope may be a blessing or an evil.
Hope is a basic affection of the mind. This philosophical analysis will clarify the concept by dealing with its involvement in knowledge, ethics and metaphysics. Being a belief, oscillating between knowledge and ignorance, hope is prone to illusion and disappointment. Man can be guided and manipulated by hope. Therefore its role within ideology and enlightenment will be investigated. We will reflect on whether and when hope may be a blessing or an evil, and on how intellectual freedom is possible.
