<span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-AU" lang="EN-AU">In this reading group, we will explore three questions: first, how does attention structure our engagement with narratives? Second, how does the active participation in narrative practices influence attentional
processes? Finally, how do attention and narrative engagement shape our sense of self? In order to address these questions, we will discuss papers from philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and cognitive narratology.
