S. Eliot and Virginia Woolf – and society by bringing to bear recent insights on the distributed nature of cognitionIncludes essays by international specialists in Victorian culture and Modernist literature, history, technology, science, philosophy and art including Andrew Michael Roberts, Jennifer Gosetti-Ferencei and Melba Cuddy-KeaneIncludes essays on literature, history, technology, science, philosophy and artThis book brings together 11 essays by international specialists in Victorian culture and modernism and provides a general and period-specific introduction to distributed cognition and the cognitive humanities. Together, they revitalise our reading of Victorian and modernist works in the fields of history of technology, science and medicine, material culture, philosophy, art and literary studies by bringing to bear recent insights in cognitive science and philosophy of mind on the ways in which cognition is distributed across brain, body and world.Notes on ContributorsMiranda Anderson, University of Stirling and University of Edinburgh, UK.Marco Bernini, Durham University, UK.Melba Cuddy-Keane, University of Toronto, Canada.
