The 5th International Literature and History Conference at the University of Reading

10-12 July 2002

Abstracts of up to 500 words are invited from all interested scholars for papers that address issues relating to the relationship between image and text in any scientific context between 1500 and 1750.

The conference themes seek to examine the relationships (complementary, antagonistic, etc.) between text and image in general in England 1500-1750. This session proposes to interrogate that relationship within the context of the scientifc disciplines. It is envisaged that papers related to such areas as chemistry, alchemy, medicine, mathematics, astronomy, natural philosophy, biology, botany, metallurgy and potentially also certain areas of applied science such as mining or milling will be accomodated.

Historians and philosophers of science, art historians, semioticians, linguists, literary scholars and any other interested scholars are asked to submit abstracts via email to the session organiser before March 1st, 2002.
