Matthew Thomas Miller replied to the topic Best Bibliographies on Cognitive Approaches to Literature in the forum
Cognitive Approaches to Literature on MLA Commons 11 years, 7 months agoThanks for your response! I have seen this website before and looked through the bibliographies on it. However, they are somewhat dated. Most of the works listed are from the late 1990s with only a few works from the early 2000s. As far as I can tell, there are no works after 2004-5. I was hoping to find something a bit more up to date. Thank you…[Read more]
