More recently, C.P.Snow's notion of a possible "third nation" in
which the literary and the scientific culture interact has been
explored in new ways by theorists on both sides of the divide,
seeking a terminology and set of procedures to investigate the
common "cultural field". The topics explored, using a range of
European examples drawn from the period of the 17th to the 20th
century, include the creative process or serendipity in science and
art; modes of perception and experimental enquiry; the use of
figures, images and narrative forms in science; the representation
of science literary works; and "bridging" exercises such as
Naturphilosophie, occult or "soft" sciences, organic aesthetics,
and anthropic arguments.
