    The Annual Balzan Lecture, 6
    cm 17 x 24, 82 pp. con 6 tavv. f.t. a colori.


    Dopo aver delineato il perimetro entro il quale si è svolto il lavoro del progetto interdisciplinare Balzan «La Letteratura come Oggetto della Conoscenza» (St. John’s College Research Centre, Oxford, 2010-2013), Cave prende in esame alcuni aspetti della ricerca, in particolare la relazione fra studi letterari e scienze cognitive. La Lecture si concentra sui testi letterari, letti con un approccio cognitivo, per offrire una nuova prospettiva sulla materia di cui è fatta la letteratura.
