Product Details
This book explores interconnections between the modes of knowing that we now associate with the rubrics literature and science at a formative point in their early development. Rather than simply tracing lines of influence, it focuses on how both literary texts and natural philosophy engage with materiality, language, affect, and form. Some essays are invested in how early modern science adopts and actively experiments with rhetorical and poetic modes and expression, while others emphasize a shared investment in natural philosophical topicsalchemy, chance, or astrology for examplethat move among the periods observational texts and its literature, highlighting the participation of literary texts in the production of experimental knowledge. Organised around the broad themes of creation and transformation, mediation and communication, and interpretation and imaginative speculation, the essays collectively probe the presumed dichotomy between sciences schematizing and taxonomic ambitions, and the fertile and volatile creative energies of literary texts.
