Sinopse

Renaissance Ecopolitics from Shakespeare to Bacon: Cosmopolis Unboundáis poised toáilluminate the relatively small but burgeoning number of ecocritical studies devoted to this period by showing how the classical concept of the cosmopolis, the harmonious integration of the Order of Nature (cosmos) with the Order of Society (polis), was at once revived and systematically dismantled in the Renaissance.áThis exciting new studyádemonstrates that the Renaissance is the hinge, the crucial turning point in the human-nature relationship andá examines the persisting ecological consequences of the nature-stateâÇÖs demise.
