Beschreibung:
Denys Van Renen is Associate Professor of English at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. He is the author of 'The Other Exchange: Women, Servants, and the Urban Underclass in Early Modern England' and co-editor of 'Beyond 1776'. He has a critical edition of Dorothy Wordsworth's journals forthcoming.
In Nature and the new science in England, 1665-1726, Denys Van Renen examines the tension between the cartographic framework with which Europeans conceptualize foreign lands and the literary representations of ecological processes, socio-cultural practices, economic systems, and gendered behaviors. Through the works of Milton, Behn, and Defoe, he demonstrates how British literature promotes cultural and biotic exchanges between the human and nonhuman.
