Dr. S Bejan Baran's comprehensive compilation delves into the intricate relationship between neuroscience and literary theory. Over the span of sixty insightful articles, the author explores how our understanding of the brain influences interpretations of literature, inviting readers to consider new perspectives on familiar texts.
Drawing from a blend of psychological insights and literary analysis, the work reflects on the cognitive processes involved in reading, interpretation, and the emotional resonance of literature. Throughout the collection, Baran challenges conventional approaches to literary criticism, encouraging an interdisciplinary dialogue that bridges the gap between the sciences and humanities.
With roots in Farsi literature, this body of work not only showcases Baran's academic rigor but also offers a fresh lens through which to view the art of storytelling. As readers immerse themselves in these essays, they are presented with a thought-provoking exploration of how our brains shape the narratives we engage with and the meanings we derive from them.
