Susan Feagen
Susan Feagen is a philosopher whose work focuses on the emotional and psychological impacts of literature, particularly in genres that evoke negative emotions such as fear and sadness. She has proposed that the pleasure derived from tragic and horrific narratives comes from a metaresponse in readers, allowing them to process and reflect on their emotional reactions in a safe context, which enriches the understanding of the human experience through fiction.
