Silvester Jenks [alias Metcalfe] (1656ñ1714), Roman Catholic priest. ìIn a work wonderfully titled An Essay upon the Art of Love, Containing an Exact Anatomy of Love and all the other Passions which attend it (1702), Silvester Jenks set forth ìthe Anatomy of the living Soul.î Philosophers such as Jenks described the causes and composition of the passions in terms derived from experience, either instead of, or in addition to, the physiological explanations of writers such as Descartes and Malebranche.îóTraiger.
