Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Expression of Emotion collects cutting-edge essays on emotional expression written by leading philosophers, psychologists, and legal theorists. It highlights areas of interdisciplinary research interest, including facial expression, expressive action, and the role of both normativity and context in emotion perception.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. By taking a distinctively institutional approach, Catharine Abell provides a unified solution to a wide range of philosophical problems raised by fiction. In particular, she draws attention to the epistemology of fiction, which has not yet attracted the philosophical scrutiny it warrants. There has been considerable discussion of what determines the contents of works of fiction, yet few attempts have been made to explain how audiences identify their contents, or toidentify the norms governing the correct understanding and interpretation of them. This book answers both metaphysical and epistemological questions concerning fiction in a way that clarifies therelation between them: What distinguishes works of fiction from works of non-fiction? What is the nature of fictive utterances? How do audiences identify the contents of authors' fictive utterances? How does understanding a work of fiction differ from interpreting it? This book develops the first single theory to provide answers to these questions and many more. Catharine Abell provides a unified solution to a wide range of philosophical problems raised by works of fiction. Drawing particular attention to the epistemology of fiction, she provides new accounts of the nature of fictive utterances, the process by which fictional entities are created, and the norms governing their interpretation.
