Abstract:
|
In this paper I argue that an understanding of shame and guilt can help us to see precisely why trying to articulate the character of the emotions in terms of binary distinctions such as passive/active, voluntary/involuntary, rational/irrational misrecognizes essential aspsects of our emotional life. Secondly, I argue that if one considers the place of these emotions in human life, then one can understand why the category of the aesthetic so often seems to shed important light on the kinds of judgments, choices and decisions that do play a role in the emotions. |

Different societies may well emphasize one of these emotions over |
| citizen might actually involve dissolving or contesting rather than affirming our political and moral projects of ordering subjects and institutions (the agonistic democrats’ point) but also that this project involves passivity as well as activity both within and outside the psyche. It requires being open to the judgment of an ‘other’ and of letting the self be sundered by this ‘other’ in the painful experience of shame that is of being shown that we are not who we thought |
