Beckett and the Cognitive Method argues that Samuel Beckett's narrative work inaugurates an exploratory use of narrative as a cognitive modeling technology. Through a detailed analysis of Beckett's entire corpus and published volumes of letters, this book argues that Beckett pioneered a new method of writing to construct (in a mode analogous to scientific inquiry)'models' for the exploration of core laws, processes, and dynamics in the human mind.
