Conclusion. 330 $aThis book reveals the ways in which seventeenth-century poets used models of vision taken from philosophy, theology, scientific optics, political polemic and the visual arts to scrutinize the nature of individual perceptions and to examine poetry's own relation to truth. Drawing on archival research, Poetry and Vision in Early Modern England brings together an innovative selection of texts and images to construct a new interdisciplinary context for interpreting the poetry of Cavendish, Traherne, Marvell and Milton. Each chapter presents a reappraisal of vision in the work of one of these authors, and these case studies also combine to offer a broader consideration of the ways that conceptions of seeing were used in poetry to explore the relations between the 'inward' life of the viewer and the 'outward' reality that lies beyond; terms that are shown to have been closely linked, through ideas about sight, with the emergence of the fundamental modern categories of the 'subjective' and 'objective'. This book will be of interest to literary scholars, art historians and historians of science. 410 0$aEarly Modern Literature in History,$x2634-5927 606 $aEuropean literature$yRenaissance, 1450-1600 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature 606 $aLiterary Theory 606 $aEuropean Literature 615 0$aEuropean literature 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 14$aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature. 615 24$aLiterary Theory. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 676 $a821.308 700 $aPartner$b Jane$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0871352 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299995903321 996 $aPoetry and Vision in Early Modern England$91945281 997 $aUNINA
