Full Description
This volume is an interdisciplinary exploration of philosophical psychology utilising insights from the study of literature.
It traverses disciplinary boundaries in two directions: some chapters proceed from the theoretical foundations of philosophical psychology and then reach into literary works, whilst others start from literary works, then reach into philosophy. Every chapter asks what literature can deliver to philosophy just as much as the reverse direction.
This volume aims to enrich and further elucidate many of the concepts central to philosophical psychology and is essential reading for all scholars, researchers and advanced students in the philosophy of mind and in the philosophy of literature.
