If cognition should be approached less as  a matter of internal representation—a Cartesian inner theatre—than as a form  of embodied action, how might cultural representation be rethought? What can  literature and culture reveal or challenge about embodied minds? The essays in  this book ask what new directions in the humanities open up when the thinking  self is understood as a participant in contexts of action, even as extended  beyond the skin. Building on cognitive literary studies, but engaging much  more extensively with ‘4E’ cognitive science (embodied, embedded, enactive,  extended) than previously, the book uses case studies from many different  historical settings (such as early modern theatre and digital technologies)  and in different media (narrative, art, performance) to explore the embodied  mind through culture. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-12-19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137593283\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-59329-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 259\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44753118429324,"sku":"9781137593283","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137593283.jpg?v=1776698291","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781137593283","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
