Call and Response: An Intersubjective Paradigm.
Dr Anthony Korner

Access to Lectures | Speaker

For each of us the first vocal communication is the (infant’s) cry. With this spontaneous gesture the infant powerfully enters the world of human communicational interaction. From an evolutionary perspective the central behavioural patterns that distinguish mammals from other animals are 1) maternal / parental care of the newborn; 2) the “separation” call; and 3) play. In humans these developments are highly developed and reflected in human brain development. Human brain development provides a complex interface with the environment. It is clear that each of these patterns as well as language itself can only emerge in an interpersonal context. An intersubjective understanding of evolution recognizes not just the “call” of the infant (self) but also the “response” of the other as necessary to any notion of selective advantage for the species.
