Abstract

Self-deception is both a common phenomenon of everyday life and a topic of great interest for philosophers since the time of Socrates. A self-deceiver seems in fact to behave irrationally if compared to someone striving to know oneself and capable of producing the right reasons for his actions. But how can we properly speak of the "rightness" of reasons and how can we characterize irrationality? I will here present Davidson's reflections on this issue.
