Book excerpt: This book illustrates how an original, simple but philosophically potent idea is developed into a theory for the human sciences -- covering philosophy, logic, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, ontology, morality, religion, neurology, linguistics, psychology, anthropology, sociology, history, and education. A structured Glossary provides a roadmap to navigate these complexities. This revolutionary idea -- a trichotomy of knowledge, a three-fold division which includes everything that could ever be considered knowledge in the context of how the brain treats knowledge -- leads to theories of truth/affidence, value, the semantics of literature, modality, style and fictionality. Literary studies are divided into semantics of literature -- historical research which includes experimental inquiry into the act of poetic creation; and semics -- the study of reading acts: these components are further sub-divided within a modal theory, and arguments presented that venture beyond literature in exploring some of the cognitive problems which literary semantics raises. In the chapter Practical Semics, the author -- as The Chaucer Man, a professional performer in Middle English of Chaucer's works develops frame theory to analyse a passage from The Miller's Tale, arguing that received modal-verb categories cannot cope with the layers of fictionality in The Canterbury Tales. Trevor Eaton's theory led to the founding of Journal of Literary Semantics, now in its 37th volume. The Fifth Conference of the International Association of Literary Semantics is to take place at the University of Genoa in 2010. This volume demonstrates conclusively how literary semantics can throw light on and organize the theory of literature. A final chapter presents a formal document for discussion offered to readers of the Journal (founded by Eaton in 1972, and published by Mouton de Gruyter). The author then responds to two critiques of the document, made by distinguished linguists.

Download or read book Narrative Progression in the Short Story written by Michael Toolan and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-14 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of our most valuable capacities is our ability partly to predict what will come next in a text. But linguistic understanding of this remains very limited, especially in genres such as the short story where there is a staging of the clash between predictability and unpredictability. This book proposes that a matrix of narrativity-furthering textual features is crucial to the reader’s forming of expectations about how a literary story will continue to its close. Toolan uses corpus linguistic software and methods, and stylistic and narratological theory, in the course of delineating the matrix of eight parameters that he sees as crucial to creating narrative progression and expectation. The book will be of interest to stylisticians, narratologists, corpus linguists, and short story scholars.

Download or read book Stories and Minds written by Lars Bernaerts and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do narratives draw on our memory capacity? How is our attention guided when we are reading a literary narrative? What kind of empathy is triggered by intercultural novels? A cast of international scholars explores these and other questions from an interdisciplinary perspective in Stories and Minds, a collection of essays that discusses cutting-edge research in the field of cognitive narrative studies. Recent findings in the philosophy of mind and cognitive psychology, among other disciplines, are integrated in fresh theoretical perspectives and illustrated with accompanying analyses of literary fiction. Pursuing such topics as narrative gaps, mental simulation in reading, theory of mind, and folk psychology, these essays address fundamental questions about the role of cognitive processes in literary narratives and in narrative comprehension. Stories and Minds reveals the rich possibilities for research along the nexus of narrative and mind.
