Fact and Fiction explores the intersection between literature and
the sciences, focusing on German and British culture between the
eighteenth century and today. Observing that it was in the
eighteenth century that the divide between science and literature
as disciplines first began to be defined, the contributors to this
collection probe how authors from that time onwards have assessed
and affected the relationship between literary and scientific
cultures. Fact and Fiction's twelve essays cover a wide range of
scientific disciplines, from physics and chemistry to medicine and
anthropology, and a variety of literary texts, such as Erasmus
Darwin's poem The Botanic Garden, George Eliot's Daniel Deronda,
and Goethe's Elective Affinities. The collection will appeal to
scholars of literature and of the history of science, and to those
interested in the connections between the two.
