Bridging mathematical science, semantics, rhetoric, grammar, and major poems, Judith H. Anderson seeks to negotiate writings from multiple disciplines in the shared terms of poiesis and figuration rather than as cultural opposites. Analogy, a type of metaphor, has always been the connector of the known to the unknown, the sensible to the infinite. Anderson?s study moves from the figuration of light and death to the history of analogy and its pertinence to light in physics and metaphysics, from Kepler to Donne, Spenser, and Milton. Topics proliferate: creativity, optics, the relation of literature to science, the methodology of thought and argument, and the processes of narrative, discovery, and interpretation. 606 $aSCIENCE / Philosophy & Social Aspects$2bisacsh 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Renaissance$2bisacsh 606 $aAllegory 606 $aAnalogy in literature 606 $aMetaphor in literature 606 $aDeath in literature 606 $aEnglish literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aAnalogy. 610 $aDeath. 610 $aDonne. 610 $aKepler. 610 $aLight. 610 $aLiterature and science. 610 $aMilton. 610 $aOptics. 610 $aSpenser. 610 $ametaphor. 615 7$aSCIENCE / Philosophy & Social Aspects. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Renaissance. 615 0$aAllegory. 615 0$aAnalogy in literature. 615 0$aMetaphor in literature. 615 0$aDeath in literature. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a820.9/3548 686 $aLIT019000$aSCI075000$2bisacsh 700 $aAnderson$b Judith H.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0476890 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154725703321 996 $aLight and Death$92836498 997 $aUNINA
