Book Synopsis Thomas De Quincey and the Cognitive Unconscious by : Markus Iseli
Book excerpt: This book examines Thomas De Quincey's notion of the unconscious in the light of modern cognitive science and nineteenth-century science. It challenges Freudian theories as the default methodology in order to understand De Quincey's oeuvre and the unconscious in literature more generally.
