Abstract
Shared beliefs, collective emotions and joint intentions are widely recognized to be at the core of the social world. Beliefs, emotions and intentions, however, largely depend on experience . It is hard to see how the former could be joint, shared, or collective, without any possibility of togetherness at the experiential level. Sharing experiences is thus a key for human sociality.
