The two central emotions of pride and jealousy have long been held to have no role in moral judgements, and have been a source of controversy in both ethics and moral psychology. Kristjan Kristjansson challenges this common view and argues that emotions are central to moral excellence and that both pride and jealousy are indeed ingredients of a well-rounded virtuous life.
Kristján Kristjánsson is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Akureyri, Iceland. He is the author of Social Freedom: The Responsibility View (1996).
