A podcast about the philosophy of emotion. Hosted by Benjamin Matheson and Constant Bonard.
Quand on a peur, on fuit. Quand on est en colère, on attaque. Mais qu’est-ce qui se passe exactement dans notre tête — ou dans notre corps — quand on ressent une émotion ? Est-ce que nos émotions nous montrent quelque chose sur le monde, comme une sorte de sixième sens moral ? Ou sont-elles plutôt des réactions, des manières de se positionner face à ce qui nous arrive ?
Dans cet épisode, nous recevons Julien Deonna et Fabrice Teroni (Université de Genève) et explorons leur théorie : l’attitudinalisme. Une idée simple en apparence, mais aux conséquences profondes — qui remet en question la manière dont on pense habituellement le lien entre émotions et valeurs, entre ressentir et juger.
On s’appuie pour cela sur leur article de 2022, « Emotions and Their Correctness Conditions: A Defense of Attitudinalism ».
