Description

While historians of science often focus on the scientific ideas of Erasmus Darwin, this work by Martin Priestman examines his role as a literary writer. The book places Darwin within a broad late-Enlightenment network of scientists, writers, and thinkers. Through an analysis of his three major poems - The Loves of the Plants (1789), The Economy of Vegetation (1791), and The Temple of Nature (1803) - the text explores Darwin's place among the social movers and shakers of his time. This Routledge publication provides a unique perspective on the intersection of literature and science during the Romantic era.

Key Features

This Routledge publication examines the literary contributions of Erasmus Darwin beyond his scientific reputation.

The text analyzes three major poems: The Loves of the Plants (1789), The Economy of Vegetation (1791), and The Temple of Nature (1803).

Martin Priestman situates Darwin within a polymathic late-Enlightenment network of writers and scientists.

The book explores the connections between Darwin and the various thinkers and social movers of his era.
