The machine in the text: science and literature in the age of Shakespeare and Galileo

Redefining literature and art as knowledge-producing practices and recasting the practices of emergent science as imaginative, creative, and literary, thisbook draws upon recent work to argue for a more complex understanding of early modern culture in which the scientific can be said to produce the literary and the literary the scientific.
