Or poems enacting the formation and breakdown of community as expositions of irrational numbers? What if, in other words, literary texts possessed a kind of mathematical unconscious?The persistence of the rhetoric of "two cultures," one scientific, the other humanities-based, obscures the porous border and productive relationship that has long existed between literature and mathematics. In eighteenth-century Scottish universities, geometry in particular was considered one of the humanities; anchored in philosophy, it inculcated what we call critical thinking. But challenges to classical geometry within the realm of mathematics obligated Scottish geometers to become more creative in their defense of the traditional discipline; and when literary writers and philosophers incorporated these mathematical problems into their own work, the results were not only ingenious but in some cases pioneering. Literature After Euclid tells the story of the creative adaptation of geometry in Scotland during and after the long eighteenth century. It argues that diverse attempts in literature and philosophy to explain or even emulate the geometric achievements of Isaac Newton and others resulted in innovations that modify our understanding of descriptive and bardic poetry, the aesthetics of the picturesque, and the historical novel. Matthew Wickman's analyses of these innovations in the work of Walter Scott, Robert Burns, James Thomson, David Hume, Thomas Reid, and other literati change how we perceive the Scottish Enlightenment and the later, modernist ethos that purportedly relegated the "classical" Enlightenment to the dustbin of history. Indeed, the Scottish Enlightenment's geometric imagination changes how we see literary history itself. 410 0$aHaney Foundation series. 606 $aScottish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$xScottish authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGeometry in literature 606 $aEnlightenment$zScotland 607 $aScotland$xIntellectual life$y18th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aScottish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xScottish authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGeometry in literature. 615 0$aEnlightenment 676 $a820.9/9411 700 $aWickman$b Matthew$01033608 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460806003321 996 $aLiterature after Euclid$92474906 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04106nam 22006615 450 001 9910337954203321 005 20200704235114.0 010 $a9783030183547 010 $a9783030183554 (e-book) 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-18355-4 035 $a(CKB)4100000008525458 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-18355-4 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5806453 035 $a(PPN)260303801 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008525458 100 $a20190629d2019 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aLife and Death in the Gombe Chimpanzees $eSkeletal Analysis as an Insight into Life History /$fby Claire A.

This is of particular interest to both primatologists and skeletal analysts who have benefited from published data on a smaller, earlier skeletal sample from Gombe. The Gombe skeletal collection is the largest collection of wild chimpanzees with known life histories in existence, and this work significantly expands the skeletal sample from this long-term research site (49 chimpanzees). The book explores topics of general interest to skeletal analysts such as demographic patterns, which injuries leave signs on the skeleton, and rates of healing, and discusses both qualitative and quantitative analysis of the patterning of lesions. The book presents the data in a narrative style similar to that employed in Dr. Goodall?s seminal work The Chimpanzees of Gombe. Readers already familiar with the Gombe chimpanzees are likely to appreciate summaries of life events correlated to observable skeletal features. The book is especially relevant at this time to remind primate conservationists of the importance of the isolated chimpanzee population at Gombe National Park as well as the availability of the skeletons for study, both within the park itself as well as at the University of Minnesota. 410 0$aDevelopments in Primatology: Progress and Prospects,$x1574-3489 606 $aAnatomy 606 $aMedical anthropology 606 $aPhysiology 606 $aVeterinary medicine 606 $aAnimal ecology 606 $aAnimal Anatomy / Morphology / Histology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25015 606 $aMedical Anthropology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12080 606 $aAnimal Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33030 606 $aVeterinary Medicine/Veterinary Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H67000 606 $aAnimal Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015 615 0$aAnatomy. 615 0$aMedical anthropology. 615 0$aPhysiology. 615 0$aVeterinary medicine. 615 0$aAnimal ecology. 615 14$aAnimal Anatomy / Morphology / Histology. 615 24$aMedical Anthropology. 615 24$aAnimal Physiology. 615 24$aVeterinary Medicine/Veterinary Science. 615 24$aAnimal Ecology. 676 $a571.31 676 $a599.885 700 $aKirchhoff$b Claire A$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0860190 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337954203321 996 $aLife and Death in the Gombe Chimpanzees$91919330 997 $aUNINA
