Darwin and Derrida: Cognitive Literary Theory As a Species of Post-Structuralism

Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) in organization studies would be strengthened by an increased focus on a central CDA tenet that texts should be analysed in context. Context has, for the most part, been afforded a taken‐for‐granted status that is misplaced because of the diverse ways in which it may be defined and applied. These generally unacknowledged differences relate to whether context is treated as space, time, practice, change, or frame. The result is a confusing array of studies claiming some degree of CDA status without core agreement – or acknowledgement of disagreements – about what is meant by context or how it should be linked to texts. To remedy this situation we identify in this Point article nine methodological protocols related to conceptual definitions, data selection, and data analysis which we argue benefit the consistency and rigour with which CDA in organization studies is applied. Use of these protocols may also serve as criteria against which the rigour of CDA research papers may be assessed.

“…Herný princíp v procese adaptácie naberá zreteľnejší tvar aj nad rámec adaptologicky zaužívanej metafory bricolage či prepojenia adaptácií a paródií, no vysvetlenia, ktoré zatiaľ podávame, ešte nemôžu byť adekvátne výzve, ktorej prikladáme význam v tejto monografii. 183 Možno porovnať aj paralely medzi Darwinom a Derridom, na ktoré upozorňuje Ellen Spolsky (2002).…”

Pohyb ku kognitívnym adaptačným štúdiám: adaptácia ako hra

Hlavným cieľom monografie „Pohyb ku kognitívnym adaptačným štúdiám: adaptácia ako hra“ bolo orientovať súčasný výskum adaptačných štúdií vektorom empiricky zodpovednej kognitívnej vetvy neradikálneho konštruktivizmu. Tento zámer vyplýva z prudkej progresívnej diferenciácie výskumu adaptačných štúdií, ktorá sa v tejto oblasti prejavila hlavne v posledných dvoch dekádach. Modelom adaptácie ako hry v kognitívnovednej perspektíve sa poskytuje možnosť predikcie charakteru (aj v širšom zmysle) zážitku experientov adaptácií. Keďže podoba tohto zážitku výrazne formuje produkty adaptačného procesu do ich výslednej podoby, model adaptácie ako hry možno aplikovať aj v štandardnom umenovednom úsilí pri interpretácii jednotlivých adaptácií. Model adaptácie ako hry sa v monografii syntetizuje na základe poznatkov rozmanitých disciplín. V okruhu kognitívnych vied pomáhajú východiská filozofie, lingvistiky, informatiky, psychológie, antropológie, biológie či neurovedy – obzvlášť afektívnej neurovedy, ktorá sa zaoberá aj emočným rozmerom hry. V prieniku s podstatnými interdisciplinárnymi zložkami výskumu adaptácií sa vo veľkej miere využívali aj poznatky klasických i kognitívnovedných variácií literárnej vedy, filmovej vedy (miestami aj teatrológie) či mediálnych štúdií. Konzistentne s inými podobnými výsledkami kognitívnych vied sa dokazuje, že aj zdanlivo seriózne adaptácie, podobne ako je to v mnohých aspektoch našej kultúry, majú ludický základ.

“…New work by Elaine Auyoung, Laura Otis, Suzanne Keen, Alan Richardson, and many others offers new paradigms for the selective application of modern science within humanistic analyses of artistic form. Ellen Spolsky, another contributor to the 2015 volume, suggests in her essay “Darwin and Derrida” () that “whatever empirical data is studied, the goal is ideologically humanist” (Spolksy 296). On the other hand, Alan Richardson suggests in his book The Neural Sublime () that there are limits to the interdisciplinarity promised by cognitive literary studies as a general field.…”

This article discusses the lasting impact of associationist philosophy on studies of Romantic and Victorian literature. Associationism, which involves belief that “mental and moral phenomena may be accounted for by association of ideas” (OED), combines habits of thinking with habits of feeling. The suggestion that detectable patterns of thought impact personal preferences and social decisions has special significance in scholarship about sympathy and distance. The explosion of scholarship within cognitive theory and the arts, spearheaded by Nicholas Dames, Sean O'Toole, Anne Stiles, Laura Otis, Lisa Zunshine, and many others, has offered powerful insights into attention, recollection, and the understanding of the self through literature. Analyses of narrative form and affect by scholars such as Amanda Anderson, Sarah Winter, Catherine Robson, and Suzanne Keen underscore how associations dictate and shape sympathetic interactions. This article argues for productive overlap between these strains of scholarship. Together, the works suggest that insights into habits of mind can and should be applied to the social realm.
