The Arts of 17th-Century Science: Representations of the Natural World in European and North American Culture 1st edition
Claire Jowitt
An examination of the world of the "new science" of the 17th century. The poet Milton imagines a supine feminised world colluding in her own submission to a virile new patriarchal authority. With the "abdication" of God, man becomes governor, even protector of the world.
