A poem or movie may be described as "sentimental" if it is appealing too directly to the feelings of the audience. The poets of all cultures have frequently embodies the original meaning of sentimentality. But to modern sentimentality, their most substantial contribution has come through the removal of their poems, from their intellectual context.【F1】
What people have too often taken, second-hand, from poetry is not the totality of a poetic vision but a few digestible associations and assumptions.
When we refer to our "heart" today, we usually simply mean the more immovable aspects of our mind. Described almost as a moral necessity nowadays, possessing "a dream" is usually, in fact, to possess greedy, unimaginative ambition. Yet the near-sacred modern status of "love" involves holding it high above any object of love. In pursuing this "needed", "deserved" and "self improving" emotional commodity, we often overlook basic human empathy.
【F2】
Sentimentality is dangerous because it simplifies our understanding of life such that we are confused and even ashamed by genuine emotional complexity.
Sentimentality is dangerous because it forgives micro-morality. In watching a film, we are forced to accept that the character with whom we spend the most time is the character most worthy of our support. This self-satisfaction follows us out of the cinema.【F3】
Sentimentality is dangerous because, indulging in it, one feels virtuous in transcending "the survival of the fittest", forgetting that one is reinforcing an equally exclusive "survival of the cutest".
More worryingly, there are those for whom the shedding of tears is felt as a virtue in itself.【F4】
Feeling emotionally exhausted after getting through a film or a book, or even in simply speaking earnestly, one might assume that one has already fulfilled a moral duty to humanity.
Sentimentality either softens people excessively or it hardens them. Raised on sentimental culture, the weaker-minded are overcome with emotion at the slightest trigger, unable to reason their way out of it. A more intelligent audience may, of course, numb themselves to it. But in blocking out such devices, one risks blocking out all consideration of, and sensitivity to, the real sentiments that sentimentality implies.【F5】
By consciously practicing sentimentality—by creating an unmentioned separation between an i-dealized dream-world and one’s own special understanding of this world, one undermines one’s language and one’s honesty
