Abstract:

<i>Psyche and the Literary Muses </i>focuses on the psychology of
literature from an empirical point of view, rather than the more typical
psychoanalytic position, and concentrates on literary content rather than
readers or writers. The book centers on the author's quantitative studies
of brief literary and quasi-literary forms, ranging from titles of short
stories and names of literary characters to clichés and quotations from
literary sources, in demonstrating their contribution to the topics of
learning, perception, thinking, emotions, creativity, and especially person
perception and aging. More broadly, <i>Psyche</i> bears on literary
studies, art, and psychology in general, as well as interdisciplinarity.
This book deepens the understanding and appreciation of literature for
scholars, academics and the general reader.
