MARIA GARTON & KAREN HEALD
The collected works of Maria Garton and Karen Heald, held here in these pages, offer a lens through which to sense their shared view of the world; to see, primarily, but also to feel. Their work is propositional; each piece is suggestive of presence in a place, in a position, in a state of contemplation...

They view time as observer-determined and thus shed light on multiple and often conflicting temporalities we live in, think, and talk about. Relying on empirical methods, the book explores linguistics and psychological parameters of time perception and conceptualization...
