    "Jonsson is the first scholar in this historical field to assimilate the most recent empirical knowledge about our evolved human nature and the psychology of imagination. Her theoretical framework provides robust explanatory power, her interpretive critiques are incisive and authoritative, and her style is lucid and vigorous. Like the best critics of any literary school, she evokes the whole imaginative world view of the authors she discusses." --Joseph Carroll, Curator's Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University of St. Louis, Missouri, USA "Jonsson's new book is brilliantly conceived, elegantly written, and deeply illuminating. Her premise is that Darwinian thinking represented a profound challenge to the foundational concepts of literary culture-the autonomy of the individual, the meaningfulness of human life, the importance of moral choice, and the value of art. Her argument is that literary culture in the years following Darwin explored ways of confronting this challenge, opening up a space between difficult truths and soothing fictions, and making it possible for people to grasp the unique disturbance of the Darwinian message without being destroyed by its implications." --Geoffrey Harpham, senior fellow at the Kenan Institute for Ethics, Duke University, USA Darwinian evolution is an imaginative problem that has been passed down to us unsolved. It is our most powerful explanation of humanity's place in nature, but it is also more cognitively demanding and less emotionally satisfying than any myth. From the publication of the Origin of Species in 1859, evolution has pushed our capacity for storytelling into overdrive, sparking fairy tales, adventure stories, political allegories, utopias, dystopias, social realist novels, and existential meditations. Though this influence on literature has been widely studied, it has not been explained psychologically. This book argues for the adaptive function of storytelling, integrates traditional humanist scholarship with current knowledge about the evolved and adapted human mind, and calls for literary scholars to reframe their interpretation of the first authors who responded to Darwin. Emelie Jonsson is Assistant Professor of English literature at the Arctic University of Norway, UiT, and Associate Editor of Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture. Her research centers on the friction between human psychology and naturalistic cosmology. .

    "A must-read from one of the pioneers of scientific approaches to performance and theater. If, like me, you're a skeptic about the science of universals, you'll find a wealth of brilliant readings to challenge and inform you in this innovative book." --Angus Fletcher, Professor of Story Science at Ohio State's Project Narrative and author of Wonderworks: The 25 Most Powerful Inventions in the History of Literature (pub.year). "In a brilliant reformulation of evolutionary theory, Bruce McConachie sets up a guiding principle for the unified ways that performance and politics operate in human societies across the centuries. In a series of well-written and carefully argued sections, he argues for the shaping power of evolutionary universals in the stages of human history. As he proclaims, biology and culture are fundamentally intertwined. Now, in our modern times, we are offered a vital understanding of how and why our cultural worlds and societies are joined together in the universal controls of evolution." --Thomas Postlewait, School of Drama, University of Washington, USA. This book outlines the evolution of our political nature over two million years and explores many of the rituals, plays, films, and other performances that gave voice and legitimacy to various political regimes in our species' history. Our genetic and cultural evolution during the Pleistocene Epoch bestowed a wide range of predispositions on our species that continue to shape the politics we support and the performances we enjoy. The book's case studies range from an initiation ritual in the Mbendjela tribe in the Congo to a 1947 drama by Bertolt Brecht and include a popular puppet play in Tokugawa Japan. A final section examines the gradual disintegration of social cohesion underlying the rise of polarized politics in the US after 1965, as such films as The Godfather, Independence Day, The Dark Knight Rises, and Joker accelerated the nation's slide toward authoritarian Trumpism. A historian of performance, Bruce McConachie has written Engaging Audiences (2008), Evolution, Cognition, and Performance (2015), and Theatre Histories: An Introduction (with others, 2006, 2010, and 2016). .
