Compare The Mind and its Stories by Patrick Colm Hogan, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Patrick Colm Hogan argues that, to a remarkable degree, the stories people admire in different cultures follow a limited number of patterns determined by cross-culturally constant ideas about emotion. Hogan draws on world literature; experimental research treating emotion and emotion concepts; and methodological principles from contemporary linguistics and philosophy of science. He concludes with a discussion of the relationship between the narrative, emotion concepts, and the biological and social components of emotion. | The Mind and its Stories by Patrick Colm Hogan, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
