Romanticism and the Sciences

While the Romantic period has attracted a great deal of interest in recent times, there has neen no general work since 1941 on the relationship between Romanticism and the sciences. This new book presents a series of essays, each specially written by an expert in the area, which focus on the role of Romantic philosophy and ideology in the sciences, and on the role of the sciences in Romantic literature. The contributions are designed to give a systematic coverage of the whole field. They are written at a popular level; they are well-illustrated; and are accompanied by suggestions for further reading suitable for undergraduates and others.Cunningham, Andrew is the author of 'Romanticism and the Sciences', published 1990 under ISBN 9780521356022 and ISBN 0521356024.
