Opis:: The aim of this paper is to use cognitive approach in order to analyse the topic of religion in two novels by Iain Banks. I argue that in both The Wasp Factory and Consider Phlebas Banks presents divine thoughts as cognitively natural for humans, since, according to neuroscience, the propensity for religiosity is inborn and universal. Banks’s novels show that people have an innate need to fill space with agents, and cannot refrain from ascribing illusory purpose to the cruel chaos of the surrounding world.

Tytuł:: Memory and storytelling in Iain Banks’s “Use of weapons”

Opis:: The aim of this paper is to use cognitive approach in order to discuss the topic of memory in Iain Banks’s “Use of weapons.” I argue that Banks presents memory as a creative faculty of the human brain which is inherently connected with imagination, identity-shaping processes and narrative construction. In this essay, I analyse the workings of memory, as well as its social and cultural functions, as presented in “Use of weapons.”
