Abstract

I propose to give an exposition of the three main characterizations of hope. First, the concept of hope as pleasure and, in particular, as «pleasure of anticipation» in the light of the Platonic tradition; hope as «mental image» in the light of the contemporary approach of Luc Bovens; and hope as «desire» in the light of the analytical tradition of the second half of the twentieth century. After presenting two alternatives to the model of defining conditions, I propose several conclusions that point towards a unitary understanding of hope in a practical key.
