Description

Explore the intricate relationship between plants and writing in sixteenth-century England through this scholarly study by Leah Knight. This book examines how early modern English cultures intertwined botanical knowledge with print culture, revealing the textual gardens, poetic garlands, and epigrammatic groves that shaped the period's literary landscape. Knight analyses both poetic and botanical texts, demonstrating how the cultivation of plants and books depended on each other in historically specific and novel ways. The work uncovers linguistic, conceptual, metaphorical, and material intersections between botany and literature, providing essential insights into early modern intellectual history. Part of Routledge's Literary and Scientific Cultures of Early Modernity series, this title combines rigorous scholarship with accessible prose for students and researchers of Renaissance literature, history, and the history of science.
