Poetic Science: Wonder And The Seas Of Cognition In Bacon And Pericles, Jean Feerick
Poetic Science: Wonder And The Seas Of Cognition In Bacon And Pericles, Jean Feerick
2017 Faculty Bibliography
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 and rhetoric, math and Milton, Boyle and the Bible, plague and plays, …

The Imperial Graft: Horticulture, Hybridity, And The Art Of Mingling Races In Henry V And Cymbeline, Jean Feerick
English

This theoretically sophisticated yet elegantly written Handbook includes an editor's Introduction that …

“Rude Uncivill Blood”: The Pastoral Challenge To Hereditary Race In Fletcher And Milton, Jean Feerick
English

Strangers In Blood: Relocating Race In The Renaissance, Jean Feerick
Strangers In Blood: Relocating Race In The Renaissance, Jean Feerick
English
Strangers in Blood explores, in a range of early modern literature, the association between migration to foreign lands and the moral and physical degeneration of individuals. Arguing that, in early modern discourse, the concept of race was primarily linked with notions of bloodline, lineage, and genealogy rather than with skin colour and ethnicity, Jean E. Feerick establishes that the characterization of settler communities as subject to degenerative decline constituted a massive challenge to the fixed system of blood that had hitherto underpinned the English social hierarchy.Considering contexts as diverse as Ireland, Virginia, and the West Indies, Strangers in Blood tracks …
