A Newton Among Poets - Carl Grabo - Bog

""A Newton Among Poets: Shelley's Use Of Science In Prometheus Unbound"" by Carl Grabo is a literary analysis of Percy Bysshe Shelley's play ""Prometheus Unbound."" The book explores how Shelley, a Romantic poet, incorporated scientific ideas and theories from the Enlightenment era, particularly those of Sir Isaac Newton, into his work. Grabo examines the play's use of scientific language, imagery, and themes, and argues that Shelley's incorporation of science was not simply a nod to the intellectual climate of his time, but a deliberate attempt to challenge and subvert traditional literary conventions. The book also delves into the political and philosophical implications of Shelley's scientific approach, and how it reflects his broader concerns with social justice and human liberation. Overall, ""A Newton Among Poets"" provides a unique perspective on Shelley's work, and sheds new light on the intersection of science and literature in the Romantic era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
