Abstract

Considering the relevance of the interaction between neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy in the contemporary de- bate on emotions, this paper aims at establishing a fruitful dialogue between Hegel’s Philosophie des subjek- tiven Geistes and the most important neuroscientific and psychological research on emotions. By means of an analysis of the role of Empfindungen (sensations) and Gefühle (feelings) in the Enzyklopädie der philoso- phischen Wissenschaften (1830), we will show that Hegel developed a Theorie des Gefühls. The proposed dia- logue between Hegel’s thought and contemporary theories is useful for distinguishing the various types of emotions and their cognitive and affective aspects. In fact, it will emerge that both Hegel and recent studies on emotion consider emotions to be characterized by a cognitive valence which enables a person to orient herself/himself in the world.
