This volume presents a multidisciplinary approach to narrative
engagement within the paradigms of cognitive linguistics, cognitive
narratology, and social-psychology. In their basic form, storyworld
possible selves, or SPSs, are blends resulting from the conceptual
integration of an intra- and an extra-diegetic perspectivizer. In
written narratives, SPS blends function as hybrid referents for a
variety of inclusive and ambiguous linguistic expressions, which
are here explored from the standpoint of interactional cognitive
linguistics, as instances of SPS objectification and
subjectification. The model also draws on character construction
and on the social-psychology notions of self-schemas and possible
selves. This allows an exploration of emotional responses to
narratives not just in terms of empathy or sympathy towards
fictional entities, but also in terms of narrative ethics and of
culturally determined and simultaneously idiosyncratic feelings of
personal relevance and self-transformation.
