What's Hecuba to Him? by Eva M Dadlez
This work discusses the seeming irrationality or inauthenticity of our emotional response to fiction. Using Shakespeare's Hamlet as an example, the book argues that we can understand the relation between cognition and emotion without devaluing our emotional responses to fiction.-
