Beschreibung

A reflective work examining fear as a condition of mind and experience, and proposing a disciplined approach to its understanding and resolution. Basil King approaches the subject not through abstraction but through observed patterns of thought and behaviour, considering how fear arises, how it sustains itself, and how it may be addressed through clarity and self-command. The work proceeds through a series of structured reflections, balancing psychological insight with a broader philosophical perspective. King's treatment remains measured and deliberate, emphasizing the role of perception, habit, and inward orientation rather than external circumstance. The result is a text that occupies a space between moral philosophy and early psychological writing, presenting its ideas without reliance on system or jargon. Henry C. Link's introduction situates the work within the emerging field of applied psychology, framing King's observations in relation to contemporary thought on personality and mental discipline. Together, the text and introduction present a unified examination of fear as both a personal and conceptual problem. Positioned within early twentieth-century writing on character, psychology, and self-mastery, The Conquest of Fear remains a representative example of a tradition that bridges philosophical reflection and practical inquiry.
