Abstract
In this paper we discuss Erica Cosentino’s book “The narrative mind. The simulative foundations of discourse production and comprehension”. The main aim of Cosentino’s book is to propose a model of discourse processing opposed to the classical computational tradition and in line with an embodied model of mind. In this regard, Cosentino maintains that human beings process discourses and stories through simulations of reality. These simulations are embodied representations, that is to say representations grounded in our sensory motor experiences.
