Of Books and Botany in Early Modern England Sixteenth-Century Plants and Print Culture
Of Books and Botany in Early Modern England: Sixteenth-Century Plants and Print Culture By Leah Knight
2016 | 163 Pages | ISBN: 135191412X | PDF | 4 MB
Contemplating the textual gardens, poetic garlands, and epigrammatic groves which dot the landscape of early modern English print, Leah Knight exposes and analyzes the close configuration of plants and writing in the period. She argues that the early modern cultures and cultivation of plants and books depended on each other in historically specific and novel ways that yielded a profusion of linguistic, conceptual, metaphorical, and material intersections. Examining both poetic and botanical texts, as well as the poetics of botanical texts, this study focuses on the two outstanding English botanical writers of the sixteenth century, William Turner and John Gerard, to suggest the unexpected historical relationship between literature and science in the early modern genre of the herbal. In-depth readings of their work are situated amid chapters that establish the broader context for the interpenetration of plants and writing in the period's cultural practices in order to illuminate a complex interplay between materials and discourses rarely considered in tandem today.

E-BooksMorningstar Growing Up With Books





Morningstar Growing Up With Books
Morningstar: Growing Up With Books By Ann Hood
2018 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 039335556X | EPUB | 2 MB
"[An] enchanting journey through Ann Hood's early fascination with reading.... Book lovers will find Morningstar irresistible."―Lynn Sharon Schwartz, author of Ruined by ReadingGrowing up in a mill town in Rhode Island, in a household that didn't foster a love of reading, novelist Ann Hood discovered nonetheless the transformative power of literature. She learned to channel her imagination, ambitions, and curiosity by devouring ever-growing stacks of books. In Morningstar, Hood recollects with warmth and honesty how The Bell Jar, Marjorie Morningstar, The Harrad Experiment, and The Outsiders influenced her teen psyche and introduced her to topics that could not be discussed at home: desire, fear, sexuality, and madness. Later, Johnny Got His Gun and Grapes of Wrath dramatically influenced her political thinking while the Vietnam War and Kent State shootings became headline news, and classics such as Dr. Zhivago and Les Misérables stoked her ambitions to travel the world. With characteristic insight and charm, Hood showcases the ways in which books gave her life and can transform―even save―our own lives.
