Descrizione John Donne's Physics

"With the anniversary of Donne's brilliant and difficult Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions coming up in 2024, Elizabeth Harvey and Timothy Harrison's John Donne's Physics is a timely study that provides fresh readings of the Devotions in relation to all of Donne's other writings. Previous scholarship has focused on Donne "the cleric" and the religious, pastoral significance of his work and thought. Harvey and Harrison show us another side of "the pastoral poet": as a thinker immersed in the latest developments in science and medicine of the time, and a participant in debates on natural philosophy and physics of his day. Rereading the Devotions alongside Donne's love poetry, satire, letters, and elegies, Harvey and Harrison shed new light on Donne, on his experience of the 1623 typhus epidemic in London that inspired his writing of the Devotions, and how we might think with Donne during our own pandemic times"--
