Hunger
Hunger is the first-person story of a young man desperately trying to establish himself in the city as a writer, living in shabby lodgings where he can seldom afford to pay the rent, eating almost nothing, and engaging spasmodically and manically with landladies, eccentric elderly men, policemen, shopkeepers, pawnbrokers, and others on the way. He wanders around the streets, sits on benches trying to write, spends a night locked in a pitch-dark p…
Imagining the Emergence of the Human
This paper offers a series of commentaries and reflections on certain of Christopher Johnson's lines of argument as perceived from the perspective of cognitive studies, with particular reference to the notion of embodied cognition. It opens with a brief outline of his work on the evolution of human intelligence in the context of the conceptually parallel question of the evolution of cognition. Subsequently, it raises questions about what this acc…
Dancing With Marionettes
Kleist's oblique and sometimes enigmatic dialogue on the marionette theatre (1810) may helpfully be approached, it is argued here, within a cognitive perspective. Together with the essay ‘Von der Überlegung’, published a few days earlier, this dialogue explores the distinction between automatic and reflective response. It presents the dancing puppet as an extension of the puppeteer's mind, that is to say of the cognitive activities that govern it…
Situated Cognition
Literary utterances reflect the situatedness of cognition itself both through their historico-cultural specificity and through their deployment of highly particularized language. It follows that the literary archive (in the broadest sense, all forms of storytelling, fiction, poetry, song, drama, and their offshoots) is also a cognitive archive and that a history of cognition and of reflection on cognition might be traced through imaginative liter…
Introductory Remarks
continuing value for the community, and to construct a collective memory. Many of the contributors to the conference evoked their memories of Malcolm and spoke of their responses to his work; these introductory remarks were designed simply to set that process in motion. The idea of setting up the journal that eventually became Paragraph arose out of the discussions of the Modern Critical Theory Group, which had been formed two years earlier, in 1…

Modeste and Mignon
Amid the many literary intertexts of Balzac's Modeste Mignon (1844), the works of Goethe play a key role. Modeste's first name contains a coded reference to Torquato Tasso , while her family name is borrowed from the Mignon of Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre. Because Modeste is in many ways quite unlike Mignon, this latter reference has generally been regarded as marginal, but it can be shown that Balzac consciously plays off the Bildungsroman of his …
Ancients and Moderns
Histories of literature are inclined to treat the Quarrel of the Ancients and Moderns as a rather parochial dispute among French lettrés of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century, echoed in England in the ‘Battle of the Books’. The personal quarrels and rivalries of that period are however better seen as the local idiom in which long-standing cultural issues were articulated; the apparently surprising virulence it engendered is no doub…
Erasmus, Man of Letters
Cornucopia
Cornucopia Cave's study of the texts of the French Renaissance shows an uneasy balance between the aspiration to copia and the textual methods to attain it, and the inherited cornucopian texts of Antiquity which both inform and limit this aspiration. Thus, central to the book's sense of an underlying crisis is the introduction of the figuration of abundance in Renaissance texts, the fragment presented here

Recognitions
This book is about the most neglected strand of Aristotelian poetics — anagnorisis, or recognition. It is a topic that has conventionally had a bad press: the recognition scene is regarded as an implausible contrivance, a feeble way of resolving a plot the author can no longer control. But why do such scenes occur in every kind of drama and narrative fiction from the Odyssey and Oedipus to thrillers by Le Carré — and how is it they continue to su…
