About the book

Do literary texts provide distinctive access to the history of science? Is the study of literature based on scientific procedures? Is there a connection between scientific processes and literary forms?

What emerges is a picture of the mutual dependence and the incalculable difference between literature and science in the period of their modern formation. --
