Poetry and Vision in Early Modern England

This 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.

Aceasta carte dezvaluie modurile in care poetii din secolul al XVII-lea au folosit modele de viziune preluate din filozofie, teologie, optica stiintifica, polemica politica si artele vizuale pentru a examina natura perceptiilor individuale si pentru a examina propria relatie a poeziei cu adevarul.
