    All the living beings are neurobiologically driven beings. Creative writers and artists are no exception to it. We as literary critics, think that creative writers and artists are also living beings and they are mostly driven by neuro-chemical reactions in the brain. In the world of neurology, each body and the parts of the body are the cause of all the information received by the neurons and through certain processes, they are revealed in the form of Human behavior. Creativity is one of the human behaviors which is mostly governed by neuro psychological impacts of the external world. The paper argues for this kind of neuro chemical reactions, processes, and knowledge receptions as subject matters of romantic poets. The romantic poets were deeply influenced by the French Revolution, and Tambora eruption effects. The paper presents how these effects were received by the poets neurologically and being under some certain neurotransmitters and neuromodulators like norepinephrine (NE) and Epinephrine, Histamine, and Serotonin, and how they could use a specific kind of diction which is conceptualized as ―Climatoglossia‖.Climatoglossia is defined for interpreting used images and symbols concerning severe shifts in the climate of Europe and Britain as reflected in the select poems of Byron, Shelley, Campbell, and Keats

    The paper demonstrates how neurocognitive social psychology can be applied to study human behaviour through literary character analysis with digital tools; and how the digital literary studies in terms of neurocognitive psychology may help develop new models for technology and theories of contemporary science. Based on the theses, the paper illustrates the theoretical methodology called “Humanities-inspired technology for society” as an essential sub-branch of Digital Humanities and its application to the two major research studies: to great classics of all times and the aetiology of autism. The paper advocates to bring literary theory and neurocognitive literature in the curricular of the courses in science and technology. Keywords: Humanities-Inspired Technology, Research in Digital Humanities, Neurocriticism, Autism, Literary Studies, Literary data Modeling, Digital Narrative, Social Media, Transdisciplinary Researc

    Neuropsychological Impact of Apartheid in Damon Galgut’s The Promise

    Get PDF
    This study focuses on neuro-sociological impact of apartheid as depicted in lifestyles and lives of characters in Damon Galgut’s novel The Promise. It studies his sharp portrayal of a white family in post-apartheid South Africa. It chronicles the experiences of a white, affluent family who runs a small farm over the course of several decades. It focuses on a dying family member's promise to leave their belongings to their black domestic worker. Future generations of the family ignore this commitment. The paper presents a comprehensive analysis of alienation, suppression and quest for home and identity as the results of neuropsychological conditions in the novel. The impact of alienation is revealed in the forms of anxiety, despair, loneliness, and struggle for identity. The consequences of alienation and suppression of the characters in the novel are studied. This novel will be examined with two proposals in mind: first, to view the alienation and the suppression and its consequences on the characters and second, to observe the mental status of characters for the quest for identity and home
