    A century and a half after the publication of Origin of Species, evolutionary thinking has expanded beyond the field of biology to include virtually all human-related subjects—anthropology, archeology, psychology, economics, religion, morality, politics, culture, and art. Now a distinguished scholar offers the first comprehensive account of the evolutionary origins of art and storytelling. Brian Boyd explains why we tell stories, how our minds are shaped to understand them, and what difference an evolutionary understanding of human nature makes to stories we love. Art is a specifically human adaptation, Boyd argues. It offers tangible advantages for human survival, and it derives from play, itself an adaptation widespread among more intelligent animals. More particularly, our fondness for storytelling has sharpened social cognition, encouraged cooperation, and fostered creativity. After considering art as adaptation, Boyd examines Homer’s Odyssey and Dr. Seuss’s Horton Hears a Who! demonstrating how an evolutionary lens can offer new understanding and appreciation of specific works. What triggers our emotional engagement with these works? What patterns facilitate our responses? The need to hold an audience’s attention, Boyd underscores, is the fundamental problem facing all storytellers. Enduring artists arrive at solutions that appeal to cognitive universals: an insight out of step with contemporary criticism, which obscures both the individual and universal. Published for the bicentenary of Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of Origin of Species, Boyd’s study embraces a Darwinian view of human nature and art, and offers a credo for a new humanism

    La 4e de couverture indique : "Ce livre propose une lecture phénoménologique du discours romanesque, en particulier du roman existentialiste et du Nouveau Roman dont les mutations rhétoriques sont profondément influencées par ce courant philosophique. L'impulsion de la phénoménologie, interrogation sur les rapports entre réalité phénoménale, conscience individuelle et corps, permet aux romanciers de résoudre une série d'impasses propres au réalisme du XIXe, ce qui renforce le rôle dominant du genre romanesque dans la littérature et plus généralement dans la culture. Mettant au centre de ses réflexions l'appréhension du monde par des corps situés, orientés au sein d'une chair indivise indissociable de ce qui la constitue comme signe, la philosophie de Merleau-Ponty propose des catégories et une série d'outils herméneutiques pour l'analyse critique de ces oeuvres, et en particulier du rôle qu'y joue la corporéité. La fécondité des catégories phénoménologiques merleau-pontiennes mises à l'épreuve de romans de Camus, Sartre, Beauvoir, Simon, Sarraute et Robbe-Grillet permet d'envisager un enrichissement méthodologique de l'analyse du discours littéraire."

    "For the past forty years The Nature of Narrative has been an essential work for students of literature, teachers, writers, and scholars. Countering the tendency to view the novel as the paradigm case of literary narrative, Robert Scholes and Robert Kellogg offered a compelling history of narrative from antiquity to the twentieth century. Their main goal was to describe and analyze the nature of narrative's key elements: meaning, character, plot, and point of view." "The Fortieth Anniversary Edition of this groundbreaking work has been revised and expanded to include a new preface and a lengthy chapter by James Phelan on developments in narrative theory since 1966. This new material describes the principles and practices of structuralist, cognitive, feminist, and rhetorical approaches to narrative, paying special attention to their work on character, plot, and narrative discourse. A continued leader in the field of narrative studies, The Nature of Narrative offers unique and invaluable histories of both narrative and narrative theory. Book jacket."--Jacket

    A century and a half after the publication of Origin of Species, evolutionary thinking has expanded beyond the field of biology to include virtually all human-related subjects—anthropology, archeology, psychology, economics, religion, morality, politics, culture, and art. Now a distinguished scholar offers the first comprehensive account of the evolutionary origins of art and storytelling. Brian Boyd explains why we tell stories, how our minds are shaped to understand them, and what difference an evolutionary understanding of human nature makes to stories we love. Art is a specifically human adaptation, Boyd argues. It offers tangible advantages for human survival, and it derives from play, itself an adaptation widespread among more intelligent animals. More particularly, our fondness for storytelling has sharpened social cognition, encouraged cooperation, and fostered creativity. After considering art as adaptation, Boyd examines Homer’s Odyssey and Dr. Seuss’s Horton Hears a Who! demonstrating how an evolutionary lens can offer new understanding and appreciation of specific works. What triggers our emotional engagement with these works? What patterns facilitate our responses? The need to hold an audience’s attention, Boyd underscores, is the fundamental problem facing all storytellers. Enduring artists arrive at solutions that appeal to cognitive universals: an insight out of step with contemporary criticism, which obscures both the individual and universal. Published for the bicentenary of Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of Origin of Species, Boyd’s study embraces a Darwinian view of human nature and art, and offers a credo for a new humanism

    « Quelle est la valeur de la fiction aujourd’hui? Le mode fictionnel a-t-il sa place lorsqu’il s’agit de raconter des événements comme les guerres? Quelles stratégies le récit contemporain déploie-t-il pour dire la guerre telle qu’elle se déroule à notre époque? Ce thème suscite des difficultés, qui renvoient toutes de près ou de loin au danger de fausser la mémoire d’un événement historique traumatisant pour des collectivités. Ce livre montre comment une certaine poétique peut parvenir à négocier ces écueils. L’étude de textes de théâtre et de romans de Wajdi Mouawad, Laurent Gaudé, Mathias Énard et Jean Rolin révèle que la littérature pallie un manque laissé par l’ouvrage historique, le reportage journalistique ou le témoignage, surtout, et paradoxalement, parce qu’elle exhibe sa fictionnalité. Cet ouvrage aborde les œuvres comme des laboratoires où sont testés les rapports entre narratologie et éthique. Il évalue la légitimité de la fiction, son intérêt et sa pertinence, et suggère qu’à l’ère postfactuelle le récit de guerre renvoie à nos valeurs et à nos croyances autant qu’à nos scrupules et à nos contradictions. »--

    La 4e de couverture indique : "Ce livre propose une lecture phénoménologique du discours romanesque, en particulier du roman existentialiste et du Nouveau Roman dont les mutations rhétoriques sont profondément influencées par ce courant philosophique. L'impulsion de la phénoménologie, interrogation sur les rapports entre réalité phénoménale, conscience individuelle et corps, permet aux romanciers de résoudre une série d'impasses propres au réalisme du XIXe, ce qui renforce le rôle dominant du genre romanesque dans la littérature et plus généralement dans la culture. Mettant au centre de ses réflexions l'appréhension du monde par des corps situés, orientés au sein d'une chair indivise indissociable de ce qui la constitue comme signe, la philosophie de Merleau-Ponty propose des catégories et une série d'outils herméneutiques pour l'analyse critique de ces oeuvres, et en particulier du rôle qu'y joue la corporéité. La fécondité des catégories phénoménologiques merleau-pontiennes mises à l'épreuve de romans de Camus, Sartre, Beauvoir, Simon, Sarraute et Robbe-Grillet permet d'envisager un enrichissement méthodologique de l'analyse du discours littéraire."
