Imperativi, emozioni e significato

Keywords: Jørgensen’s Dilemma, Communication, Predication, Epistemic emotions

Abstract

In this paper it will be inquired the relationship between cognitive dimension of emotions, imperatives and their possible formal analysis, and the general structure of communication. It will be sustained that the difficulties underlined by Jørgen Jørgensen with his “dilemma” concerning the logical analysis of imperatives, can be useful to show that there are more general problems in the attempt to conceive of human knowledge as intrinsecally determined by the format of intersubjectivism.
