It turns around the tendency to discuss relations between literature and science in one-sided and polarizing ways. The collection is the result of the inaugural conference of ELINAS, the Erlangen Center for Literature and Natural Science, an initiative dedicated to building bridges between literary and scientific research. ELINAS revitalizes discussion of science-literature interconnections with new topics, ideas and angles, by organizing genuine dialogue among participants across disciplinary lines.The essays explore how scientific thought and practices are conditioned by narrative and genre, fiction, models and metaphors, and how science in turn feeds into the meaning-making of literary and philosophical texts. These interdisciplinary encounters enrich reflections on epistemology, cognition and aesthetics.Literatur- und Naturwissenschaften ;Band 3.Physics and Literature Physics in literaturePhysics in literature.809.9336Heydenreich Aura MariaMecke Klaus R.1964-NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910518198703321Physics and Literature2572813UNINA
