Recenzii
This is a very thoughtful book that takes a deep dive into one of humankind's most significant moral emotions. We recommend it.
Thomason's unified account of shame is ambitious and compelling. Her constitutive account of moral emotions is independently plausible and worthy of further attention. And both accounts are developed within a sharply written piece of philosophy that is rich with engaging literary examples. Thomason has shown that the darker side of shame can illuminate this complicated emotion's brighter side.
Thomason's book is provocative, insightful, and loaded with interesting and colorful examples. It will be of interest to theorists in normative ethics and philosophy of emotion, but also to advanced undergraduates and non-philosophers
there is also much to be appreciated by anyone with an interest in moral psychology. It formulates an understanding of the emotion of shame and advances powerful but controversial arguments about the permissibility of inducing shame in others. I could envision it being used as a main text in a seminar on moral psychology, in conjunction with other books or papers that bring alternative perspectives (consequentialist, virtue theoretic, pluralist) to bear.
This book is undoubtedly a valuable contribution to furthering the conversation about shame and its proper place in morality. Thomason's account of the nature of shame is alluring and deserves serious consideration... Philosophers seeking to better inform their own bets would do well in reading this book.
Embracing shame in all its variety from that of the teenage boy discovered masturbating by his mother to that of the liar, the cheat, and the thief Thomason's refreshingly accessible book yields a unified account of shame as an emotion that marks dissonance between the identities that define us and the self-conceptions we hold dear. In arriving at her account, Thomason acknowledges shame's destructive features but defends a place for it among the emotions the liability to which is constitutive of our moral commitments. Proponents of the competing traditional, naturalistic, and pessimistic views of shame likely will find areas in which to disagree with Thomason, but her arguments should not be ignored.
Drawing on philosophy and imaginative literature, this is an informative and stimulating exploration of the nature and moral status of the emotion of shameone that forced me to rethink some of my own views on the topic. Clearly written and well argued, it should be of value both to those who have given considerable thought to the topic and those who are starting to think about it for the first time. I recommend it with enthusiasm.
This is an elegant and original account of shame, with a striking explanatory power. Thomason shows with style how even the darkest features of shame have and deserve a place in our moral life. Naked is a must-read for anyone interested in ethics, the moral emotions, and moral psychology.
