TY - CHAP A1 - Mellmann, Katja A2 - Aldama, Frederick Luis T1 - Voice and Perception : An evolutionary approach to the basic functions of narrative T2 - Toward a cognitive theory of narrative acts / ed. by Frederick Luis Aldama. Cognitive approaches to literature and culture series N2 - Whereas in traditional models of literary narrative we had to deal with typologies mainly (for instance, of "narrative situations"; see Stanzel 1971, 1984; Fludernik and Margolin 2004; Genette 1980), we now possess a systematic description of the imagination evoked by a text, which takes into account the quasi-ontological (see Bortolussi and Dixon 2003) status of its constituents. In this chapter I search for the cognitive functions that correlate with the text features of "voice" and "perception" and for how they bring about such a "layered" imagination in the reader. The aim is to explain how and why literary narratives can run properly in the human mind-which is another way of asking how humans could develop narrative discourse as a way of communication at all.
