Cognitive Literary Criticism Exploration of Children’s Reading of Double Vision for Children’s Story -Traces of Bicameral Mind that Remain in Children’s Literature-

The concept of ‘Yijungsi(이중시, 二重視)’ is a translation of ‘Double Vision’ from Merja Polvinen’s “Cognitive Science and the Double Vision of Fiction”. This concept is often used to explain the phenomenon of ‘passing over’ between facts and imagination found in children’s story reading, which is the main subject of analysis in this paper. It will also be discussed in connection with bicameral mind, which is an important concept of discussion. What benefits do children from reading children’s story, both hypothetical and realistic? It is difficult to provide a generalized answer to this question, but the act of children crossing facts and virtual areas that they have not yet reached can be the best preparation process for adapting and mutating appropriately to the situation they will meet when they grow up. Comparing to the tense, if facts are rooted in the past and present, then the virtual refers to the future. Children’s reading of Double Vision for children’s story can be said to be a ‘jumbled task’ between what has already happened and what has not yet happened.
