Both can be understood as disrupted forms of intersubjectivity, the former being characterized by a lack\/deficiency of ways of relating to others, and the latter by an unnecessary surplus. By studying the literary accounts of these phenomena in a selection of Ian McEwan's literary works (\"Homemade,\" \u003ci\u003eOn Chesil Beach, Enduring Love\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAtonement\u003c\/i\u003e), Andrei Ionescu sheds light on the epistemological potential of literature and the structure of human relationships in general. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart of the developing field of cognitive literary studies, \u003ci\u003eDisrupted Intersubjectivity\u003c\/i\u003e not only uses cognitive scientific theories in order to clarify literary issues, but also investigates to what extent can literature itself contribute to the process of understanding the workings of the human mind. By investigating the metacognitive issues staged and reflected upon in literary works, Ionescu challenges and refines contemporary cognitive and philosophical approaches to intersubjectivity and opens directions for further theoretical and empirical research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrei Ionescu \u003c\/b\u003eis a Staff Writer at\u003ci\u003e Earth: Nature, Science, Life\u003c\/i\u003e (www.earth.com).
