Academia for Poetic Thinking (APT)

APT is an overarching research project led by Marko Pajević*.

"APT is based on my conviction that we need to develop better academic concepts to understand the processes of meaning-making. It is working with ’thinking language’ and dialogical thinking to contribute to a poetological anthropology, in the sense of a reflection on what it means to be human. Language and literature are privileged fields of investigation into these issues so that APT proposes a humanities version of cognitive science."
