In mid 2011 you wrote within the website, "Prof. Woodward has agreed to publish Jaynes's unpublished chapters through the Julian Jaynes Society. I expect to have this publication ready sometime in late 2012."
There has been no update since then. Could you discuss the status of this project?
Thanks.

That said, the translation by Robert Fagles is generally considered one of the finest of the late 20th century. And I think it fits the "Jaynesian point of view" quite well. There's a fair amount of variety in tone and emphasis from translation to translation, and it's worth comparing editions if yo...

Re: Recent News of Interest to the Jaynes Community?

Re: Bicameral Mind As A Dynamic
Jim, complicated subject. The bicameral mind, as theorized by JJ, is a pre-conscious mind, devoid of consciousness as we define it. I suspect from your questions that you haven't read JJ's work.

Re: Jaynes in Bowie’s Top 100
Bowie is definitely one of the more serious and well read musicians alive today. Not to mention intelligent. Nice to see his interest in Jaynes.
