Description

Explore the deep connection between the human mind and the narratives we consume. Entranced by Story: Brain, Tale and Teller examines why humans are drawn to storytelling and the psychological impact these experiences have on both creators and audiences. This book investigates the specific emotions generated by great stories, such as a temporary loss of self, vicarious emotion, and a sense of purposeful involvement. Readers will learn about the development of storytelling abilities from infancy through old age. The text looks at what drives writers to build new worlds and why readers find themselves under the spell of a well-told tale. It also addresses the question of why certain children develop the lifelong capacity to become writers. Whether you are interested in literature, culture, or cognitive psychology, this work provides a look at how stories shape our human experience.
