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.
