The Theater of Experiment: Staging Natural Philosophy in Eighteenth-Century Britain
Coppola, Al (Assistant Professor of English, Assistant Professor of English, John Jay College of Criminal Justice at the City University of New York)
The Theater of Experiment explores the crucial role of spectacle in the establishment of modern science. It analyzes eighteenth-century theatrical representations of science in order to demonstrate how experimental natural philosophy was itself a kind of performing art that was shaped by a wider culture of spectacle in the Enlightenment.
