Moral Emotions: Reclaiming the Evidence of the Heart

More about the book

Focusing on the concept of personhood, the book delves into the significance of moral emotions, categorizing them into three key groups: self-givenness (pride, shame, guilt), possibility (repentance, hope, despair), and otherness (trusting, loving, humility). Anthony J. Steinbock presents a systematic exploration of these emotions, highlighting their roles in human experience and moral development, thus advancing the field of phenomenology.
