Random information on the term “Sorrow”:
Sorrow is an emotion, feeling, or sentiment. Sorrow “is more ‘intense’ than sadness… it implies a long-term state”. At the same time, “sorrow — but not unhappiness — suggests a degree of resignation… which lends sorrow its peculiar air of dignity”.
Moreover, “in terms of attitude, sorrow can be said to be half way between sadness (accepting) and distress (not accepting)”.
Romanticism saw a cult of sorrow develop, reaching back to The Sorrows of Young Werther of 1774, and extending through the nineteenth century with contributions like Tennyson’s “In Memoriam” — “O Sorrow, wilt thou live with me/No casual mistress, but a wife” — up to W. B. Yeats in 1889, still “of his high comrade Sorrow dreaming”. While it may be that “the Romantic hero’s cult of sorrow is largely a matter of pretence”, as Jane Austen pointed out satirically through Marianne Dashwood, “brooding over her sorrows… this excess of suffering” may nevertheless have serious consequences.
