| Abstract | Peter Goldie argues that grief is a process that unfolds over time. As a mental state, grief also possesses intentionality. For it represents its object as something lost forever. This object and representation do not change over time. Can Goldie's process view accommodate the intentionality of grief? My answer is in the negative. The process view makes it difficult to reconcile the changing nature of grief as a process with the intuition that its object and content do not change over time. This paper aims to show that while the process view is psychologically and phenomenologically plausible, it fails to accommodate the intentionality of grief. |
