Alistair Fox presents a theory of literary and cinematic
representation through the lens of neurological and cognitive
science in order to understand the origins of storytelling and our
desire for fictional worlds. Fox contends that fiction is deeply
shaped by emotions and the human capacity for metaphorical thought.
Literary and moving images bridge emotional response with the
cognitive side of the brain. In a radical move to link the
neurosciences with psychoanalysis, Fox foregrounds the interpretive
experience as a way to reach personal emotional equilibrium by
working through autobiographical issues within a fictive form.
