The Literary Animal: Evolution and the Nature of Narrative - Rethinking Theory
Jonathan Gottschall
The goal of this book is to overcome some of the misunderstandings about the meaning of a Darwinian approach to the human mind generally, and literature specifically. It attempts to show how the human propensity for literature and art can be properly framed as a true evolutionary problem.
