How gender, solitude, and posture influence the stream of consciousness
pp. 259-299
Abstract
What sources contribute to our knowledge of normal, ongoing consciousness? The fine arts present numerous representations of what William James (1890/1950) termed "the stream of thought." James Joyce, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf, Joseph Heller, Sergei Eisenstein, and Alain Resnais are but a few who have portrayed the ever-changing constellation of memories, sense-data, anticipations, fantasies, rational thoughts, and images that constitute our moment-to-moment awareness as we go about our lives.
