    [NT 51398] Summary: "Self-consciousness in Modern British Fiction" examines the emergence of self-consciousness as a central trope in experimental fictions published between 1911 and 1962. Representations of self-consciousness are a lynchpin of these novels' attempts to simulate the operations of consciousness. By exploring this relation, this study participates in a critical conversation within cognitive literary studies about novels that offer models of consciousness. The study offers new readings of works by Conrad, Joyce, Lawrence, Woolf, and Lessing. Readings of individual novels are informed by early twentieth century British psychology and philosophy, and by contemporary scholarship in embodied cognition and narrative identity. The models of self-consciousness rendered visible by this analysis improve our understanding of modernist technical experiment with stream-of-consciousness and free indirect discourse.
