Imaginaire, physique et neurosciences. Essais en hommage à Helder Godinho

From the function of the mirror neurons to the history of theories and representations of the brain between Classical Antiquity and the 21st century, passing through quantum physics and the neurosciences, this book restores the interrupted dialogue between the Humanities and the exact sciences. In this sense, it invites us to reframe the theoretical and hermeneutical assumptions with which we approach the art work through a profoundly renewed conception, both from a methodological and epistemological point of view, of the sciences of the imaginary.
