Podcast appearances and mentions of terence cave

Terence Cave ist vom Schicksal gebeutelt: Seine Mutter, seine Ehefrau, sein Sohn Reuben – sie alle starben eines unnatürlichen Todes. Nun ist seine Tochter Byrony alles, was ihm geblieben ist. Sie zu beschützen, wird ihm zur Obsession. Mark Waschke liest diesen Text mit großem Einfühlungsvermögen. Ein zärtlicher Brief an die Tochter und ein erschütterndes Geständnis zugleich.

Produced by: Catherine Charlwood (@DrCharlwood) and Laura Ludtke (@lady_electric). Music composed and performed by Gareth Jones. Laura and Catherine are joined by a special guest: Dr Olivia Smith (@OliveFSmith), a Wellcome Trust Research Fellow based at Wolfson College, University of Oxford. Olivia discusses her work on early modern life writing and biology, exploring the importance of cognition and recognition to the pre-history of scientific research. In a wide-ranging discussion, she covers archives, letters, objects philosophical and scientific, and the relationship of the early modern imagination to interdisciplinarity. Olivia also talks about her work with the charity Arts Emergency (@artsemergency) and the importance of a political argument for access to the creative arts. At the end of the episode, you can hear Olivia read the poem ‘A World in an Eare-ring’, by Margaret Cavendish (1623-73).

Speech and conversation with Terence Cave. The study of cognition, the way humans think, is currently fuelling a lively and productive dialogue across the divide between the sciences and the humanities. How can literary studies participate in that dialogue? Terence Cave, Emeritus Professor of French Literature, University of Oxford, will present us with some thoughts and ideas. Using a limerick by Edward Lear as a brief example, his talk will outline some of the ways in which a cognitive perspective can enhance our understanding of what literature is and does. Afterwards Terence Cave will join critic and poet Sandra Lillebø for a conversation on stage about cognitive criticism, and how we think with literature.

A Book at Lunchtime Seminar with Terrence Cave, Deirdre Wilson, Ben Morgan (Worcester College, Oxford), Professor Robyn Carston (Linguistics, UCL). Chaired by Professor Philip Bullock (TORCH Director). Is language a simple code, or is meaning conveyed as much by context, history, and speaker as by the arrangement of words and letters? Relevance theory, described by Alastair Fowler in the LRB as 'nothing less than the makings of a radically new theory of communication, the first since Aristotle's', takes the latter view and offers a comprehensive understanding of language and communication grounded in evidence about the ways humans think and behave. Reading Beyond the Code is the first book to explore the value for literary studies of relevance theory. Drawing on a wide range of examples-lyric poems by Yeats, Herrick, Heaney, Dickinson, and Mary Oliver, novels by Cervantes, Flaubert, Mark Twain, and Edith Wharton-nine of the ten essays are written by literary specialists and use relevance theory both as a broad framing perspective and as a resource for detailed analysis. The final essay, by Deirdre Wilson, co-founder (with Dan Sperber) of relevance theory, takes a retrospective view of the issues addressed by the volume and considers the implications of literary studies for cognitive approaches to communication. Edited by Terence Cave, Emeritus Professor of French Literature, University of Oxford and Emeritus Fellow, St John's College, Oxford, and Deirdre Wilson, Emeritus Professor of Linguistics, UCL and Research Professor in Philosophy, IFIKK, University of Oslo. Terence Cave is recognized as a leading specialist in French Renaissance literature, but has also made landmark contributions to comparative literature and the history of poetics. His most recent work focuses on cognitive approaches to literature. Deirdre Wilson's book Relevance: Communication and Cognition, co-written with Dan Sperber, was described in Rhetoric Society Quarterly as 'probably the best book you'll ever read on communication.' Translated into twelve languages, it has had a lasting influence in philosophy, psychology, and linguistics and is now regarded as a classic. Contributors: Kathryn Banks, Elleke Boehmer, Guillemette Bolens, Terence Cave, Timothy Chesters, Neil Kenny, Raphael Lyne, Kirsti Sellevold, Wes Williams, Deirdre Wilson.

I boken "Thinking With Literature. Towards a Cognitive Critisism" vil professor emeritus Terence Cave åpne opp for nye måter å tenke om litteratur på. Litteraturen må betraktes som en integrert del av livet, ikke som et rent estetisk eller underholdende element, sier han. Han ivrer for et større samarbeid på tvers av fagområdene litteraturvitenskap, filosofi, psykologi, sosiologi og antropologi. En litt uortodoks utgave av Kritikerne i dag - Programleder er Anne Cathrine Straume.
