The Palgrave Handbook of Early Modern Literature and Science
ISBN: 9781137467782 / Angielski / Twarda / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about the complex ways in which science and literature are mutually-informing and mutually-sustaining. It does not cast the literary and the scientific as distinct, but rather as productively in-distinct cultural practices: for the two dozen new essays collected here, the presiding concern is no longer to ask how literary writers react to scientific writers, but rather to study how literary and scientific practices are imbricated. These specially-commissioned essays from top scholars in the area range across vast territories and produce seemingly unlikely unions: between physics...

The Quest for Shakespeare: The Peculiar History and Surprising Legacy of the New Shakspere Society
ISBN: 9783319487809 / Angielski / Twarda / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This promise, however, was undermined not only by the antics of its director, Frederick J. Furnivall, but also by the inexactitudes of the tests. Jeffrey Kahan puzzles out how a society geared towards science quickly devolved into a series of grudge matches. Nonetheless, the New Shakspere Society set the bibliographical and biographical agenda for the next century an unusual legacy for an organization that...
