Abstract

This volume presents the results of the research PRIN project (Projects of significant national interest) “Perception, performativity, and cognitive sciences”, which has been financed by MIUR (Ministry of Education University and Research) over the three years period 2016–2019 and carried out by a team of academics: Antonino Pennisi (University of Messina – Principal Investigator), Vittorio Gallese (University of Parma), Ruggero Eugeni (Catholic University of the «Sacred Heart» of Milan), Claudio Paolucci (University of Bologna), Pietro Montani (the «Sapienza» University of Rome), Marco Mazzone (University of Catania), Franco Lo Piparo (University of Palermo), Guglielmo Tamburrini (University of Naples «Federico II»). During 2017 Nunzio Allocca has joined the roman unity, while Marco Carapezza joined the unity of Palermo. All the news about the state of research and the scientific initiatives involving our research group are available on the web (https://sites.google.com/view/perception-performativity/project) and described in 2/2017 of “Reti Saperi Linguaggi. Italian Journal of Cognitive Sciences” (Pennisi 2017).
