Grennan provides a new explanation of the experience of drawing, visual depiction and imagination, creating a systematic theoretical framework describing the relationship between causes and consequences, the general potential resources of the body, institutions and ideas. He provides a needed explanation of the key distinction between correspondence relationships that structure language and the function of imagination in visual depictions, whilst maintaining a clear focus on the ways in which his explanation of depictive drawings, in particular, require an explanation of narrative, forthcoming in subsequent chapters.
