We all look at the sky, and it has always been a fertile source of guidance and inspiration in art, music, and literature. This book explores the sky’s appearances in music and art, but focuses most on the sky’s enormous presence in early modern English literature. The author concentrates on William Shakespeare, whose references to the sky far exceed the combined total of all his contemporaries. Venturing into the historical context of these references, the book teaches about the Supernovae of 1572 and 1604, the abundant comets of this period, eclipses, astrology and its relation to the night sky at the time, and the early years of the telescope and how the literature of the time relates to it. This book promises to open doors between two great fields of study by inspiring readers to look for their own connections between astronomy and literature, and by helping them to enjoy the night sky itself more completely. | | 出版日期 | Book 20111st edition | | 关键词 | English literature; Relation between sky and literature; William Shakespeare; comets and meteors; histor | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4419-7814-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-0142-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4419-7814-1 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011 |
