Acedia description |
---|
Acedia (; also accidie or accedie , from Latin aceda, and this from Greek , "negligence", - "lack of" - "care") is a state of listlessness or torpor, of not caring or not being concerned with one's position or condition in the world. It can lead to a state of being unable to perform one's duties in life. Its spiritual overtones make it related to but arguably distinct from depression. Acedia was originally noted as a problem among monks and other ascetics who maintained a solitary life. |
