Recent PhD Graduate Susanne Mathies Publishes in Philosophia

Dr Susanne Mathies, who recently passed her PhD viva at the Open University, has published “The Simulated Self – Fiction Reading and Narrative Identity” in Philosophia. The article develops a new model of fiction reading, built on two assumptions: that human beings are entangled in stories, and that emotions are complex and have a narrative structure.

The article is open access, and can be read here.

Susanne was supervised by Dr Carolyn Price and Professor Derek Matravers.
