Pride, Shame, and Guilt: Emotions of Self-Assessment

by Gabrielle Taylor

Overview

This discussion of pride, shame, and guilt centers on the beliefs involved in the experience of any of these emotions. Through a detailed study, the author demonstrates how these beliefs are alike—in that they are all directed towards the self—and how they differ. The experience of these three emotions are illustrated by examples taken from English literature. These concrete cases supply a context for study and indicate the complexity of the situations in which these emotions usually occur.
