Urbanization, capitalism, Protestantism, colonialism, revived Skepticism, empirical science, and optical technologies conspired to alienate people from both the earth and reality itself in the seventeenth century. Literary and visual arts explored the resulting cultural wounds, expressing the pain and proposing some ingenious cures. The stakes, Robert N. Watson demonstrates, were huge.Shakespeare's comedies, Marvell's pastoral lyrics, Traherne's visionary Centuries, and Dutch painting all illuminate a fierce submerged debate about what love of nature has to do with perception of reality. 606 $aEnglish literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aNature in literature 606 $aPastoral literature, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPhilosophy of nature in literature 606 $aHuman ecology in literature 606 $aRenaissance$zEngland 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aNature in literature. 615 0$aPastoral literature, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPhilosophy of nature in literature. 615 0$aHuman ecology in literature. 615 0$aRenaissance 676 $a820.93609031 686 $aHG 430$2rvk 700 $aWatson$b Robert N$0552758 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463223403321 996 $aBack to nature$92473884 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03911nam 2200601 450 001 9910812919203321 005 20230725040459.0 010 $a3-03813-329-9 010 $a1-61344-669-1 035 $a(CKB)3190000000024847 035 $a(EBL)1872454 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000680678 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11394422 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000680678 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10627438 035 $a(PQKB)10984439 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1872454 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1872454 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10814220 035 $a(OCoLC)865823050 035 $a(EXLCZ)993190000000024847 100 $a20110314h20102010 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aCurrent application of polymers and nano materials $especial topic volume with invited peer reviewed papers only /$fedited by: Amir Al-Ahmed 210 1$aStafa-Zurich, Switzerland ;$aEnfield, New Hampshire :$cTrans Tech Publications,$d[2010] 210 4$dİ2010 215 $a1 online resource (259 p.) 225 1 $aMaterials science forum,$x0255-5476 ;$vvolume 657 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-87849-252-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and indexes. 327 $aCurrent Application of Polymers and Nano Materials; Foreword; Preface; Table of Contents; Metal-Containing Polyurethanes: An Overview; Synthesis, Characterization & Impedance Studies of some New Nano Filtration Membranes; X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Characterization of Polyaniline-Cellulose Ester Composite Membranes; Optical and Electrochemical Properties of a New Donor-Acceptor Type Conjugated Polymer Derived from Thiophene, Carbazole and 1,3,4-Oxadiazole Units 327 $aNonlinear Optical Studies on a New Poly{2-(biphenyl-4-yl)-5-[3,4-didecyloxy-5-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole}Synthesis and Characterization of Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes for Photocatalytic Degradation of Aqueous Nitrobenzene in the Presence of Sunlight; Recent Developments of Nanomaterial Doped Paints for the Minimization of Biofouling in Submerged Structures; A Novel Single-Site Catalyst for Olefin Polymerization; Advanced Membrane Materials for Fuel Cell Applications 327 $aElectrical and Proton Conducting Polymer Based Composite Electrodes Incorporating Fuel Cell Catalysts: Screen Printed Systems Analysed Using Hall MeasurementsComponents for PEM Fuel Cells: An Overview; Amorphous and nc-Si:H Intrinsic Thin Films for Solar Cells Applications; A Review of Dye Incorporated Conducting Polymers Application as Sensors and in Solar Cells; Electrochemical and Spectroscopic Dynamics of Nanostructured Polynuclear Sulphonic Acid-Doped Poly(2, 5-dimethoxyaniline); Keywords Index; Authors Index 330 $aThis Special Topic Volume constitutes the contributions of thirty-nine experts from the international scientific community who are involved in this field of research.
