The Deceptive Brain: Blame, Punishment, and the Illusion of Choice by Robert L. Taylor M.D. English | November 1, 2021 | ISBN: 1789047552 | 171 pages | PDF | 1.04 Mb Preposterous as it sounds, we are not who we seem to be. Not even close. At the heart of this misperception is our deep-seated conviction of free choice. Based on emerging neurobehavioral science findings, The Deceptive Brain makes the case for human experience as a narrative illusion―an executive summary of sorts―that emerges from an incredibly complex brain. The Deceptive Brain drills down on what this finding means for the way we blame and punish, and presents a bold alternative approach to criminal justice based on blameless responsibility.

The Dating of "Beowulf" By Colin Chase (ed.) 1997 | 238 Pages | ISBN: 0802078796 | PDF | 17 MB The date of "Beowulf," debated for almost a century, is a small question with large consequences. Does the poem provide us with an accurate if idealized view of early Germanic culture? Or is it rather a creature of nostalgia and imagination, born of the desire of a later age to create for itself a glorious past? If we cannot decide when, between the 5th and 11th centuries, the poem was composed, we cannot distinguish what elements in "Beowulf" belong properly to the history of material culture, to the history of myth and legend, to political history, or to the development of the English literary imagination.This book represents both individual and concerted attempts to deal with this important question, and presents one of the most important inconclusions in the study of Old English. The contributors raise so many doubts, turn up so much new and disturbing information, dismantle so many long-accepted scholarly constructs that "Beowulf" studies will never be the same: henceforth every discussion of the poem and its period will begin with reference to this volume.
