The first part of the argument locates the question within contemporary biological, philosophical, psychological, and theological discourse. In the second part, Heidt offers a close reading of narratives by De Quincey, Chaucer, Graham Greene, and Fielding and presents physiological, behavioral as well as linguistic evidence of a formation of intention in the texts.
