Michael Burke

Literary Reading, Cognition and Emotion (eBook, ePUB)

An Exploration of the Oceanic Mind

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This theoretical and empirical study explores what happens in the minds of engaged readers when they read literature. It considers the roles that the text, the reading context, cognition, and emotion play, and it argues for the importance of understanding the "oceanic" interaction that takes place between those inputs.
