Romantic Rocks, Aesthetic Geology
ISBN: 9780801476266 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Why are rocks and landforms so prominent in British Romantic poetry? Why, for example, does Shelley choose a mountain as the locus of a "voice . . . to repeal / large codes of fraud and woe"? Why does a cliff, in the boat-stealing episode of Wordsworth's Prelude, chastise the young thief? Why is petrifaction, or "stonifying," in Blake's coinage, the ultimate figure of dehumanization? Noah Heringman maintains that British literary culture was fundamentally shaped by many of the same forces that created geology as a science in the period 1770 1820. He shows that landscape...

ISBN: 9780791457023 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 281 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Although "romantic science" may sound like a paradox, much of the romance surrounding modern science--the mad scientist, the intuitive genius, the utopian transformation of nature--originated in the Romantic period. Romantic Science traces the literary and cultural politics surrounding the formation of the modern scientific disciplines emerging from eighteenth-century natural history.
