Context:There is a familiar feeling of self-consciousness one experiences, say, when walking into a room full of strangers. It is a distinctive and somewhat puzzling feeling. (i) It seems to involve a subject taking two perspectives on herself at a time: an observer's perspective and a subject's perspective. (ii) It seems to involve an evaluative component without there needing to be a particular evaluation. (iii) It seems to involve the idea of someone evaluating one without there needing to be a particular evaluator. Indeed, one can feel self-conscious all by oneself. Although familiar, this is a somewhat philosophically neglected form of self-consciousness. The emotions known as the 'self-conscious' emotions: embarrassment, shame, guilt, pride have received much more attention. Aims and Objectives:The proposed research aims to describe and analyse this variety of self-consciousness. However, it also seeks to explore the relation between it and those self-conscious emotions. The research will argue that while self-consciousness, in this sense, is distinct from these emotions, the self-conscious emotions are dependent on the more primitive capacity to feel self-conscious. It will further argue that we can explain distinct characteristics of embarrassment, shame, guilt and pride, by appealing to the analysis of self-consciousness offered.Applications and Benefits:Understanding such self-consciousness promises to be part of a better understanding of our relation to ourselves and others. Study of such self-consciousness will also connect, in new ways, two more familiar areas of philosophical concern: the more purely philosophical notions of self-consciousness on the one hand, and the self-conscious emotions of shame, guilt, and pride, on the other. The work envisaged would result in a philosophical contribution to an area that is resurgent in both Psychology and Literature departments. The work may be of interest to researchers in those departments and would facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration with researchers on the self-conscious emotions.

背景：当一个人走进一个满是陌生人的房间时，会有一种熟悉的自我意识感觉。这是一种独特而又有点令人费解的感觉。(i)它似乎涉及一个主体同时对自己采取两种观点：观察者的观点和主体的观点。(ii)它似乎涉及一个评价组成部分，而不需要进行特别评价。(iii)它似乎涉及到有人评估一个人的想法，而不需要有一个特定的评估者。的确，一个人可以独自感觉到自我意识。虽然熟悉，但这是一种有点被忽视的自我意识形式。被称为“自我意识”的情绪：尴尬，羞耻，内疚，骄傲已经受到更多的关注。目的和目标：拟议的研究旨在描述和分析这种自我意识。然而，它也试图探索它与那些自我意识情感之间的关系。这项研究将论证，虽然自我意识在这个意义上不同于这些情绪，但自我意识情绪依赖于更原始的自我意识能力。它将进一步认为，我们可以解释尴尬，羞耻，内疚和骄傲的不同特征，通过呼吁提供的自我意识的分析。应用和好处：了解这种自我意识的承诺是更好地理解我们与自己和他人的关系的一部分。对这种自我意识的研究还将以新的方式将两个更熟悉的哲学关注领域联系起来：一方面是自我意识的更纯粹的哲学概念，另一方面是羞耻、内疚和骄傲等自我意识情感。设想的工作将导致哲学的贡献，这是在心理学和文学系复兴的领域。这项工作可能是感兴趣的研究人员在这些部门，并将促进跨学科的合作与研究人员的自我意识的情绪。
