Resentment is an
emotion of anger felt as a result of a real or imagined wrong done. Etymologically from "ressentir",
French re-, intensive prefix, and sentir "to feel"; from the
latin "sentire". The
English word has become synonymous with
anger and
bitterness. It can be an emotionally disturbing experience that is being felt again or relived in the mind. When the person feeling resentment is directing the emotion at himself it appears as
remorse.(See Kierkegaard and Nietzsche; also 12-step discussion of Resentment)
