Description: Shakespeare's Double Helix by Henry S. Turner Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Examines the developments in early modern culture as it sought to come to terms with the forces of magic, astrology, alchemy and mechanics, and fields of knowledge that preoccupied the adventurous intellects of Shakespeares period. Publisher Description What does it mean to make life? This book focuses on one of the key questions for culture and science in both Shakespeares time and our own. Shakespeare wrote A Midsummer Nights Dream during a period when the new science had begun to unsettle the foundations of knowledge about the natural world. Through close analysis of the play and reflection on modern genetic engineering, Turner examines developments in early modern culture as it sought to come to terms with the new forces of magic, astrology, alchemy and mechanics, fields of knowledge that preoccupied the most adventurous intellects of Shakespeares period and that promised limitless power over nature. Shakespeares writing sheds light on current developments in science, ethics, law, and religion in contemporary culture. The book reveals the richness and peculiarity of early scientific thought in Shakespeares time and shows how the questions he poses remain fundamental as the nature of life has become one of the most pressing political, ethical, and philosophical problems for society today. Author Biography Henry S. Turner is Assistant Professor at Rutgers University, USA. He is the author of The English Renaissance Stage: Geometry, Poetics, and the Practical Spatial Arts (OUP, 2006).
