Perhaps the difficulty lies in the fact that, firstly, it is necessary to probe the possibilities of educability of emotions. Martha Nussbaum is one of the contemporary philosophers who have devoted much of their work to the study of emotions, and from her theory, conclusions can be drawn about the question of their educability. Her theory of emotions can be situated within a set of theories that understand emotions as cognitive, which turns literature into a useful tool for their education. However, the author does not put forward an explicit methodology for such development from narrative. To this end, in this interview Nussbaum is asked about the concept of self-conscious reflection as a feasible proposal to enable the education of emotions, as well as about whether a list of “democratic emotions” can be built from her theory. Also, in this context, Nussbaum responds and elaborates on these themes.La educación de las emociones es un valioso instrumento no siempre tomado en cuenta para el desarrollo de un trasfondo valorativo igualitario y  democrático  indispensable  para  la  autonomía  de  los  ciudadanos.  Tal  vez  la dificultad radique en que, en primer lugar, es necesario sondear las posibilidades de la educabilidad de las emociones. Martha Nussbaum es una de las filósofas contemporáneas que han dedicado gran parte de su obra al estudio de las emociones, y de su teoría pueden derivarse conclusiones acerca de la pregunta de su educabilidad. Su teoría de las emociones se circunscribe dentro de un conjunto de teorías que consideran a las emociones como cognitivas, y eso convierte a la literatura en una útil herramienta para su educación. Sin embargo, la autora no explicita una metodología que permita dicho desarrollo desde las narraciones. A  estos  efectos,  en  esta  entrevista  se  le  propone  el  concepto  de  autorreflexión como posibilitador de ello, a la vez que se busca reconstruir a partir de su teoría un listado de “emociones democráticas”. Asimismo, en este contexto, Nussbaum responde y profundiza acerca de estas temáticas.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú - Departamento de Humanidades2014-12-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/arete/article/view/11111Areté; Vol. 26 Núm. 2 (2014); 315-3332223-37411016-913Xreponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/arete/article/view/11111/11626Derechos de autor 2016 Aretéhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/111112020-09-02T17:52:49Z

description The education of the emotions is a valuable tool not always taken into account in the development of the democratic, egalitarian background essential to empower citizens. Perhaps the difficulty lies in the fact that, firstly, it is necessary to probe the possibilities of educability of emotions. Martha Nussbaum is one of the contemporary philosophers who have devoted much of their work to the study of emotions, and from her theory, conclusions can be drawn about the question of their educability. Her theory of emotions can be situated within a set of theories that understand emotions as cognitive, which turns literature into a useful tool for their education. However, the author does not put forward an explicit methodology for such development from narrative. To this end, in this interview Nussbaum is asked about the concept of self-conscious reflection as a feasible proposal to enable the education of emotions, as well as about whether a list of “democratic emotions” can be built from her theory.
