Philia, Eros, Storge, Agape (four kinds of love)

[purgolders_90]

Theses are four words that mean love and I can't find them in spanish.

Philia is love between friends
Eros is the sense of being in love
Storge is Affection, love of family
Agape is unconditional love

does anyone know these?

Hi! Good night!
Well, about this words, it is posible that you don't get an especific way to traslate it because are refering to some greeks words that meand a specific kind of love...

but wait for more posts

I agree with Rattauy. Since they are Greek words, it is pretty likely they are used just in Greek when speaking in Spanish. However, I've heard "amor filial", referring to Philia love.

Filia, eros y ágape los puedes encontrar en el DRAE. Come verás, las acepciones son ligeramente distintas.

Filia se usa en español, sobre todo, como sufijo (y no sólo con caracter sexual).

En las acepciones por las que preguntas, al parecer, no se traducen.

Would people be confused if I try to describe love in those terms that are found on wikipedia? The words really explain love in detail.

I don´t thing "much common people" will know what you are speaking about whitout explanation or a source.
I, as example, didn´t knew what Storge or Pragma was until I read about it. I know what pragmático, ágape or eros mean... but I would think about the meaning in the dictionary. I would not think about love archetypes.

amor filial
amor erótico
amor fraterno
amor incondicional

amor filial
amor erótico
amor fraterno
amor incondicional

¿En el sentido de la psicología social? ¿O es una traducción en base a la lectura del enlace anterior?

Pregunto porque en el enlace anterior dejan los términos descritos sin traducir. Y a mi entender Storge no corresponde a amor fraterno. Y lo de filial tampoco queda muy claro que sea "love between friends".

Warning! "Amor filial" es amor de hijo, no de amigo. Viene del latín "filiālis", no del griego "φιλία".

Eso de "amor de amigo" lo dejaría simplemente como "amistad".

I've seen this translated in religious texts. The only change I have seen is to "Philia."

Therefore:

Amor filia
Amor eros
Amor storge
Amor agape (nunca lo he visto con tilde)

I agree with Dr Quiza. Filial (family) love and Philial (friendship) love are not the same. Filial love is very close to storge and I´ve read articles giving the four Greek loves as friendship (philial), erotic (eros), familial/filial (storge) and universal/unconditional (ágape). Amistad, erótico, filial, incondicional.

 

[ariannaj]

Agape es amor basado en principios.

Hi:
I never came across these words in regular English in either Britain or the States, but...

Philia is love between friends---------- amistad
Eros is the sense of being in love ----- estar enamorado (being in love can or cannot be related to erotic love).
Storge is Affection, love of family ---- amor familiar
Agape is unconditional love --------- amor incondicional

Cheers

Un recurso muy bueno sobre este tema es el libro titulado "Los Cuatro Amores, escrito por el escritor inglés C. S. Lewis. Los explica muy bien y da ejemplos como son los cuatro amores.
