Abstract "James Joyce's evocations of his characters' thoughts are often inserted within a commonplace that regards the mind as an interior space, referred to as the 'inward turn' in literary scholarship since the mid-twentieth century. Emma-Louise Silva reassesses this vantage point by exploring Joyce's modernist fiction through the prism of 4E - or embodied, embedded, extended, and enactive - cognition. By merging the 4E framework with cognitive-genetic narratology, an innovative form of inquiry that brings together the study of the dynamics of writing processes and the study of cognition in relation to narratives, Modernist Minds: Materialities of the Mental in the Works of James Joyce delves into the material stylistic choices through which Joyce's approaches to mind depiction evolved"-- Provided by publisher.
