Nervous Fictions: Literary Form and the Enlightenment Origins of Neuroscience
Jess Keiser
Offers an account of early neuroscience and of the peculiar literary forms it produced. Challenging the divide between science and literature, philosophy and fiction, Jess Keiser draws attention to a distinctive, but so far unacknowledged, mode of writing evident in a host of late seventeenth and eighteenth-century texts: the nervous fiction.
