The seminar is about the emotions, in particular those emotions that lie at the center of our interpersonal relationships. We will investigate the nature of emotions such as guilt, shame, love, and grief, as well as the role they play in the moral life. In addition to contemporary philosophy, the course will draw from a variety of sources. We will engage with works of art (especially film and literature), psychology, political science, and memoirs.
