دانلود کتاب تجسم هنر – چگونه می بینیم، فکر می کنیم، احساس می کنیم و خلق می کنیم

This book has benefited enormously from exchanges with colleagues and friends over the ten-plus years since the publication of Neuroestetica: L’arte del cervello. Without some of them, such a new and expanded opus would never have seen the light of day. Fernando Vidal was the most discerning reader and most gracious interlocutor I could ask for. With him I organized the international conference “Le sensible a l’oeuvre” at the Centre de recherches sur les arts et le langage (CRAL) at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) in Paris, during which time I cleared up many of the interdisciplinary challenges of the inquiry. Esteban Buch is to be thanked for supporting the initiative. In these efforts I was also aided by the Fondation Calouste Gulbenkian, headed by Joao Caraça, which hosted my exploratory workshop “Arts, neurosciences et sciences cognitives.” I am deeply grateful to David Freedberg and my fellowship at the Italian Academy for Advanced Studies at Columbia University in New York for several rich and wide-ranging discussions on the make-believe and embodied simulation, which kept me from falling into an intellectual comfort zone. The open mind with which Gretty Mirdal invited me for a stay at the Paris Institute for Advanced Study to explore the relationship between art and neuroscience, and the reception she gave me, are memories I cherish with gratitude and hope to repay by repeating her gesture for the next generation of women scholars.
