Explorations of Consciousness in Contemporary Fiction' is a collection of essays examining
the potential of the contemporary English-language novel to represent and inquire
into various aspects of the human mind. Grounded in contemporary literary theory as
well as consciousness studies, the essays consider both narrative techniques by means
of which writers attempt to render various states of consciousness (such as multimodality
in digital fiction or experimental typography in post-traumatic narratives), and novelistic
interpretations of issues currently being investigated by neurobiologists, cognitive
scientists and philosophers of the mind (such as the adaptive value of consciousness
or the process of self-integration by means of self-narration). The volume thus offers
critical reflection upon the novel's cognitive accomplishment in this challenging
area
