Abstract
The overarching aim of this project is to broaden our understanding of the ethics of praise and the nature of praise – both of which are currently undertheorized. More precisely, I want to (i) investigate whether disproportionate praise wrongs its target and (ii) investigate whether praise is best described as a type of sentiment and that it varies in degrees similarly to sentiments.
