Abstract
Gilbert's kisceral argumentation is, roughly speaking, about arguing based on intuitions. In the forefront of such a (rhetorical) model are arguers and audiences, who resolve disagreements using kisceral arguments. Intuitions as reasons were more important in pre-modern law, when the law was not as explicit, precise, and determinate as today. Law influenced by religion or religious law was a typical example. In our much more secular modern era, intuitions are more or less subordinated to the (legal) logical mode of arguing. However, in tough legal cases, when logic "runs out," it is values that decide them. Not surprisingly, neuroscience and cognitive psychology have shown a strong connection between values and intuition.

Résumé
L'argumentation kiscérale de Gilbert consiste, en gros, à argumenter sur la base d'intuitions. Au premier plan d'un tel modèle (rhétorique) se trouvent ceux qui argumentent et leurs auditoires, qui résolvent les désaccords à l'aide d'arguments kiscéraux. Les intuitions en tant que raisons étaient plus importantes dans le droit prémoderne, lorsque le droit n'était pas aussi explicite, précis et définitif qu'aujourd'hui. Le droit influencé par la religion ou la loi religieuse en était un exemple typique. Dans notre époque moderne beaucoup plus laïque, les intuitions sont plus ou moins subordonnées au mode logique (juridique) de l’argumentation. Cependant, dans les cas juridiques difficiles, lorsque la logique « s'épuise », ce sont les valeurs qui les règlent. Sans surprise, les neurosciences et la psychologie cognitive ont montré un lien étroit entre les valeurs et l'intuition.
