If cognition should be approached less as a matter of internal representation{\textemdash}a Cartesian inner theatre{\textemdash}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 {\textquoteleft}4E{\textquoteright} 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.}, keywords = {Language Arts \& Disciplines / Library \& Information Science / General, Language Arts \& Disciplines / Linguistics / Historical \& Comparative, Literary Criticism / Comparative Literature, Literary Criticism / General, Literary Criticism / Semiotics \& Theory, Psychology / Cognitive Psychology \& Cognition}, isbn = {978-1-137-59329-0}, author = {Garratt, Peter} }
