摘要:This paper explores three different conceptions of emotions we find in the work of Donald Davidson, discussing them with the three main philosophical views on emotions: the cognitivistic, the naturalistic and the sui generis. The text considers pride in relation to the cognitivistic view, surprise in relation to the naturalistic view, and smile in relation to the sui generis view. The main thesis of the paper is that both Davidson and the theory of emotions enrich their respective accounts when we oscillate between the two. The theory of emotions is strengthened when we refine it with the davidsonian concepts of singular causation, and individuative and non-individuative attitudes. The davidsonian theory of radical interpretation may be stronger if enhanced by the concept of emotional expression.
