Literary Reading - Empirical and Theoretical Studies
This is the first major book in English on literary reading to be based on empirical methods. These studies not only reinvigorate the concept of literariness, they are also thoroughly interdisciplinary, offering a coherent approach to literary reading that draws on literary theory, psychology, neuropsychology, and evolutionary psychology.

Nature and Literary Studies
