- Additional information
- The author has co-edited the volume Narrative Complexity: Cognition, Embodiment, Evolution
and contributed the single-authored chapter, ‘Between Distancing and Immersion: The Body in Complex Narrative’. The book examines new and complex narrative forms across media (digital, popular culture, film, music, apps, ambient literature) providing fresh links between narrative and cognition, the body-mind question, and wider cultural issues. In bringing together expertise in social, cognitive and computer sciences, (new, interactive) media studies, and narratology, the editors address significant gaps in the interdisciplinary understanding of narrative representation and complexity. The co-written Introduction establishes the field theoretically and methodologically, and the author’s chapter elucidates the crucial role embodiment and immersion play in the analysis and understanding of narrative complexity in contemporary media.
