Michele Maiese. Embodied Emotional Consciousness and Cognition.
The time is right to take cognitive science in new directions. The old paradigm of cognition as representation, as subjective capture of worldly information, is being challenged by calls to see cognition as the direction of the action of an organism in its world. We already see such new directions in the “embodied-embedded mind” school, as well as in the nascent Deleuzean-inspired “neo-materialist” school, movements which incorporate and critique phenomenology and dynamic systems theory.
In response to these movements, and in hopes of amplifying them and others, we propose a wholly new, dedicated, publishing forum for interdisciplinary philosophical work in cognitive science that embraces the new directions of phenomenology and neo-materialism.
We aim to publish four types of books:
(a) Monographs: cutting-edge practical / theoretical work, or historical work.
(b) Themed collections addressing new directions in philosophy and cognitive science.
(c) Essay collections on major figures as they relate to new directions in cognitive science.
(d) Translations of noteworthy books, of either contemporary or "genealogical" value.
