The Literary Mind
Turner, Mark (Professor of English, Professor of English, University of Maryland)

Using tools of modern linguistics, the recent work of neuroscientists, and literary masterpieces from Shakespeare, Homer, and Dante, Turner explains how story and projection are fundamental to everyday thought.
