Quark,n. (Phys.) One of three hypothetical components of elementary
particles [from: 'Three quarks for Muster Mark!' in Joyce's
Finnegans Wake] - The Concise Oxford Dictionary. In a wonderfully
eclectic and lively selection of poems, this anthology counters the
notion that science and poetry are magnetically opposed. The model
of the two cultures has collapsed. Just as poets write about
science and about recent scientific ideas, so too science has
reached out to the language of poetry for its own intimations on
the wilder shore of the here and the elsewhere. A Quark for Mister
Mark includes poems, old and new, whose subject is science - its
discoveries, its processes - but also poems which look at the world
with an inherently scientific gaze, whether before Copernicus or
after Einstein.
