ISBN10: 0299143546, ISBN13: 9780299143541, [publisher: University of Wisconsin Press, 1994., Madison:] Softcover 8vo. ix, [3], 277, [1] pp. Index. Pictorial wrappers. Near fine. ISBN: 0299143546 "In his famous lecture on "The Two Cultures," C.P. Snow argued that the modern intellectual gulf between writers and artists on the one hand, scientists and engineers on the other, had its roots in the nineteenth century. Jonathan Smith challenges that view by examining the cultural debate about scientific method in nineteenth-century Britain. Focusing on the status of Francis Bacon and his inductive methodology, Smith shows that literary figures were involved, both directly and indirectly, in the effort to construct a methodology that would serve both science and literature by bringing together fact and feeling, reason and imagination. Smith opens with a historical overview of the debate that includes such figures as Samuel Coleridge, John Herschel, William Whewell, J.S. Mill, Thomas Macaulay, G.H. Lewes, John Tyndall, Stanley Jevons, and Karl Pearson. Then, in a series of chapters that spans the century, Smith examines the various and complex ways in which a wide range of writers reacted to and participated in this Baconian debate. From the prose of Wordsworth and Coleridge to the fantasy of Edwin AbbottâÂÂs Flatland and the detective fiction of Arthur Conan Doyle, from the travel narrative of DarwinâÂÂs Voyage of the Beagle to the art criticism of J ...
