Biological Time, Historical Time presents a new approach to 19th
century thought and literature: by focussing on the subject of
time, it offers a new perspective on the exchanges between French
and German literary texts on the one hand and scientific
disciplines on the other. Hence, the rivalling influences of the
historical sciences and of the life sciences on literary texts are
explored, texts from various scientific domains - medicine, natural
history, biology, history, and multiple forms of vulgarisation -
are investigated. Literary texts are analysed in their
participation in and transformation of the scientific imagination.
Special attention is accorded to the temporal dimension: this
allows for an innovative account of key concepts of 19th century
culture.
