Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "A Newton Among Poets: Shelley's Use of Science in Prometheus Unbound" is a comprehensive study of the intellectual foundations underlying one of the greatest lyrical dramas in the English language. Carl Grabo meticulously examines how Percy Bysshe Shelley integrated the scientific discoveries and theories of his era-including chemistry, electricity, and Newtonian physics-into the mythic structure of "Prometheus Unbound".Rather than viewing Shelley solely as a mystic or an abstract dreamer, Grabo demonstrates that the poet possessed a profound and technical understanding of contemporary science. He argues that Shelley used scientific principles as a sophisticated framework for his philosophical and political metaphors, transforming the experimental spirit of the age into vibrant literary imagery. This work is essential for scholars and readers interested in the intersection of literature and science, offering deep insights into the craftsmanship and intellectual depth of Shelley's poetry. By bridging the gap between the arts and the sciences, Grabo highlights the unique genius of a poet who was as much a student of the natural world as he was a master of the lyrical form.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
