| 説明 | 191/365 — the open-faced sandwich“Stories evolved out of a paradox: on one hand, we’re competitive beings. We compete against one another for our share of resources. On the other hand we’re also cooperative beings. We work together as teams, if only to become better competitors. To bring down more mastodons or research grants than one can alone. But that cooperation is mind-bogglingly complex. We compete against our peers even as we cooperate with them, and oftentimes this cooperation is only to compete better against another group of humans who are also cooperating. (Politics is of course a perfect example.) I’d argue that the incredibly intense mental calculations necessary to cooperate and compete at the same time are at the root of all our storytelling. What stories do is make the writer and the reader more sensitive to the patterns in these complex social situations; they help us to predict what moves will lead to what kind of results. They make us better at predicting the future.” —Daniel Raeburn |
