Narrative Space and Possible Worlds: Encountering Ancient Narratives from a Cognitive Science Perspective

Since March 2023 I have had the privilege and pleasure to lead with Jan Rüggemeier an exciting collaborative research project on Narrative Space and Possible Worlds: Encountering Ancient Narratives from a Cognitive Science Perspective. The project, funded by the St Andrews-Bonn Collaborative Research Grant Programme, aims to bring together researchers based at the University of St Andrews and the University of Bonn from a variety of disciplines (Classics, Biblical Studies, Art History, Classical Archaeology) and various traditions (Christian, Islamic, and Buddhist studies), enabling a cross-disciplinary and trans-cultural exchange of ideas and perspectives.
