Introduction to a project,

This review is from: Reading Minds (Paperback)
This work seems to have been the product of graduate level efforts to address the role of 'humanities' in the broader educational milieu. Specifically, Turner asks why the study of 'English literature' has become tangential to cultural life. Turner laments the fact that linguistics and computer-science produce the most important research on what it means to 'read' and 'understand'.
Turner's case for making English literature faculty teach semiotics and neurolinguistics will strike many as far fetched. The ideas are better developed in later works and deserve consideration. |
