Picturing Fiction through Embodied Cognition: Drawn Representations and Viewpoint in Literary Texts
เบเปเบฝเบงเบเบฑเบเบเบถเปเบก e-book เบเบตเป
The book engages in critical dialogue with the perceived wisdom in stylistics rooted in Roger Fowlerโs seminal work on deixis and point of view to test whether or not this theory can fully account for what readers see in their mind's eye and how they see it. The work draws on findings from a study of English and Dutch across a range of literary texts, in which participants read literary text fragments and were then asked to immediately draw representations of what they had seen envisioned. Building on the work of Fowler and more recent theoretical and empirical language-based studies in the area, Klomberg, Schilhab, and Burke argue that models from embodied cognitive science can help account for anomalies in evidence from readersโ drawings, indicating new ways forward for interdisciplinary understandings of individual meaning construction in literary textual interfaces.
This book will be of interest to students and scholars in stylistics, cognitive psychology, rhetoric, and philosophy, particularly those working in the field of embodied cognition.
