Summary
Is compassion an emotion or a virtue? What characterizes a Christian understanding of compassion? What is its relationship to the Passion of Christ, to mercy and to the love for one's fellow men? The authors of this volume examine these issues from the perspective of cultural studies, philosophy and theology.
