摘要
A syndrome is described which consists of three symptoms: a mood disturbance of fear and sadness, an inability to do anything useful, and an insensitivity to pain and pleasure. Since the fourth century this condition has been known as acedia. The arguments are reviewed for its distinction from mild depression. It is suggested that the condition may be due to a lack of satisfying work. © 1983 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
