Keywords:
emotions, passion, cognitivism, appetite, cogitative powerAbstract
In the light of the variety of approaches to the study of emotions, the purpose of this paper is twofold: on the one hand, to draw attention to the cultural assumptions of experimental approaches to emotion, and, on the other, to show the relevance of resorting to philosophical tradition in order to conceptually clarify the difference between cognitive and non-cognitive approaches to emotions, as well as the constitutive elements of a cognitive approach to emotion, which I describe as «practically cognitive » in order to differentiate it from the rationalist one, which was criticized by James
