Davidson on Emotions and Values
Résumé
Although Davidson has never written specifically on emotions, we can reconstruct his views from his writings on attitudes and values. He defends a causal version of the cognitive theory of emotions which he associates to an objective conception of values. I confront his account of the correctness of emotions with the fitting attitude view of the relation of emotions and value. They can be reconciled if the correctness of an emotion is construed as a form of idealization.
