"Thoughts, according to Lamarque and Carroll, can generate genuine emotions. On their view, the vivid imagining of one's lover's death can produce genuine sadness. It is important, however, to note that what the emotion is about – its intentional object – is not the thought itself, but what the thought is about (its 'content'). In the case just given, one's sadness is about one's lover's death, and not about the thought that one's lover may die. Here, as in many everyday instances of emotion, the cause of one's emotion need not coincide with its object, and the object of one's emotion need not exist. As a result, the view preserves the claim that we can have genuine emotions towards fictional characters and situations."
