World Congress of Scottish Literature, July 2 – 5, 2014 University of Glasgow
Scottish Science: The Literature: Heat, light, earth, life and air, mathematics, meteorology, chemistry, astronomy, geology, and physics are prominent topics, concerns, and challenges that have attracted Scottish scientists since the sixteenth century and to which they have made major and significant contributions. I am interested in exploring the prose of these writers in the same way as we explore writers: the language, imagery, syntax, rhetoric, the life and times of any single figure, the culture, climate, educational institutions, and social organization which their work reflects, how the religious, economic, political, literary and artistic environment influenced them, and in turn their influence on Scottish literature and art. The papers should be about twenty minutes or ten pages.
