Daniel James Turnbull 1 Shame: In Defence of an Essential Moral Emotion ABSTRACT I argue that shame is an essential moral emotion, and that the capacity to feel shame is vital to allow us to pick out certain types of moral value. I do this by sketching out a general role for moral emotions, distinguishing shame from other moral emotions, notably guilt, and then arguing that shame has a distinctive role to play as a moral emotion that cannot be played by guilt. By marking out a key role for the emotions in moral life, I am able to address two key concerns about moral judgement. First, I am able to explain how we overcome frame problems, allowing us to notice and appropriately conceptualise moral concerns, against a backdrop of everyday life. Second, I can give an account of the apparent intrinsically- motivating nature of moral judgements. Shame, in central cases, is based on self-assessments of inadequacy; we judge ourselves to be less than we should be. This is contrasted with guilt, which centres on judgements of transgression against moral norms. It is also contrasted with embarrassment and humiliation, neither of which are primarily moral emotions. Shame has a distinctive role to play as a moral emotion. It is capable of picking out cases of moral value that guilt cannot; in particular, supererogatory value and cases of wrongdoing by collectives, in the absence of individual culpability. Pace the claims of numerous psychologists and philosophers, shame is not necessarily a dangerous emotion; rather, only certain types of shame have the potential to do damage to those experiencing them. Situationist arguments threaten the role of shame as a moral emotion, by suggesting that there are no robust character traits; these claims are mistaken. Therefore, I am able to sustain the conclusion that shame has a vital role to play in moral life. 2 Shame: In Defence of an Essential Moral Emotion TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ......................................................................................................................... 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS ...................................................................................................... 3 PREFACE ............................................................................................................................. 5 INTRODUCTION: PLACING SHAME IN MORAL LIFE .................................................. 6 CHAPTER ONE: THE EMOTIONS AND MORAL JUDGEMENT..................................... 9 A Role for the Emotions in Moral Judgement .................................................................... 9 Neosentimentalist Ethical Theories .................................................................................. 17 Nichols’ Sentimental Rules Objection.............................................................................. 23 The Conflation Problem................................................................................................... 30 CHAPTER TWO: THE STRUCTURE OF EMOTIONS ..................................................... 33 Cognitivist Theories of Emotion ...................................................................................... 33 Problems for the Cognitivist View ................................................................................... 38 An Alternative to Emotional Cognitivism ........................................................................ 43 Emotions and Moral Judgement ....................................................................................... 52 CHAPTER THREE: SHAME ............................................................................................. 58 Heteronomy versus Autonomy......................................................................................... 61 Localised versus Globalised............................................................................................. 70 The Content of Shame Judgements .................................................................................. 74 Shame: Not All Bad, Then ............................................................................................... 83 CHAPTER FOUR: EMOTIONS RELATED TO SHAME .................................................. 86 Embarrassment and Humiliation ...................................................................................... 86 3 Shame: In Defence of an Essential Moral Emotion Guilt ................................................................................................................................ 98 Distinguishing Shame and Guilt: Social vs. Individual .................................................... 100 Distinguishing Shame and Guilt: Eliciting Situations ...................................................... 103 Distinguishing Shame and Guilt: Role of the Self............................................................. 107 Two Sides of a Coin?

Iris Murdoch, Michael Stocker, David Wiggins, John McDowell, Martha Nussbaum, Richard Wollheim and, in particular, Ronald de Sousa are among the philosophers whose published work has had the most profound impact on the shape of this thesis. However, while interaction with these thinkers has influenced the content of my work, it is membership of a living, breathing philosophical community that has provided its animating spirit. The central manifestation of this effect has been through my primary supervisor, Miranda Fricker. Over the past five years she has read numerous drafts, and offered insightful comments and suggestions. Her patience, enthusiasm and judiciousness have improved this thesis in every way; quite simply, it would not exist in anything like its current form but for her guidance, and I am extremely grateful for it. Thanks are also due to my temporary supervisors, Jen Hornsby and Sam Guttenplan, as well as my secondary supervisors, Sue James and Michael Garnett, all of whom made welcome and helpful comments, to the benefit of the final result. The wider postgraduate philosophy community at Birkbeck have also been incredibly supportive, not least through their probing questions at our graduate seminars and more informal discussions. Going further back, I must also thank Peter Goldie, who sadly passed away recently, and Rai Gaita for their

  • WHAT IS a "FREE CHURCH"?* There Are Two Misunderstandings of the Church Which Are Very Widely Encountered Today
    1 * WHAT IS A "FREE CHURCH"?* There are two misunderstandings of the church which are very widely encountered today, misunderstandings which confuse almost ©very discussion of the church, her discipline and Indiscipline. Indeed, to raise the very question of church discipline in some circles Is to invite the charge that one represents the "sect-type" or favors the "sectarian Protestant" view of the alternatives, Hear the way in which Professor Max Weber defined the alternative church t$?pe8i "The church is an institution, a sort of establishment of faith ... for the saving of the soul of the individual. The individual is born into it, and is dependent upon it because of the dispensing power of Its office and position. In contrast, a sect is a voluntary association of individuals qualified solely by religious traits, in which the individual freely decides to become a member and the group freely de­ cides whether to accept him or not."* We are reminded immediately of the typology which Weber*s colleague, Professor Ernst Tree Its eh t popularized in The Social Teaching.of the. Christian Churches. *The first of five addresses on this general theme» delivered as the H#ff Lectures at Bethany Theologies! Seminary, Lombard, Illinois , October 15-17, 196 3, by Dr. Franklin H. Littell, Professor at Chicago Theological Seminary. —2 The "church type" represents a kind of continuum of Christ and culture, in which "the church" and "the world" speak the same language. There is no discontinuity of social and educational and religious and polit­ ical values. In effect, the church has consecrated the high places and now serves as one of the mainstays of society.

  • Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej
    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.

THE POLITICS OF HIV/AIDS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR DEMOCRACY IN KENYA Wambuii Henry Kiragu, Ph.D. Western Michigan University, 2004 Democratic consolidation in newly transitioned democracies has traditionally been attributed to widely accepted political and legal mechanisms, like elections and constitutions. Existing literature on democratization in sub-Saharan Africa is preoccupied with these mechanisms as prime indicators for democratic takeoff in specific countries. Hardly any attention has been paid to other less openly political mechanisms, such as the response to external shocks, as potential sources of institutional development that could advance democratic practices.

THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT SUBSTITUTES by GREGORY JAMES FLAIL Under the Direction of George Pullman Food choice has intrigued generations of scholars seeking insight into the rituals that characterize the cultural and sub-cultural values of various nations and eras. Among the more recent cultural phenomena to influence theories about the body is food choice. Perhaps there is no argumentative issue more pervasive than that of food choice, because everyone must eat. The morsels that people consume are chosen as often as not for their symbolic value. A review of the literature of dietary discourse and representation reveals a gap where studies of vegetarian and vegan identity, mass media, and mass markets are concerned. This dissertation utilizes theories of representation, cultural studies, and discourse analysis to uncover culturally specific attitudes in the marketing of food with regard to vegetable-based diets, the foods that they consist of, and the people who eat them.
