Michael Page argues, a literary narrative on questions

the Romantic through the
Vidorian
periods. Examining the interchange between emerging scientific
ideas
—
specifically evolution and ecology
—
new technologies, and literature
in nineteenth-century Britain, Page shows how British writers from Darwin
to fl.G. Wells confronted the burgeoning expansion of scientific knowledge
thai was radically redefining human undersianding and experience of
lbe
natural world, of human species, and of the self. The wide range of authors
covered in Page s ambitious study permits him to explore an impressive
array of topics that include the role of the Romantic era in the molding of
scientific and cultural perspectives: the engagement of William Wordsworth
and Percy Shelley with questions raised by contemporary science; Mary
Shelley s conflicted views on the unfolding prospects of modernity: and how
Victorian writers like Charles Kingsley, Samuel
Buller,
and
W.U.
Hudson
responded to the implications of evolutionary theory. Page concludes with
the scientific romances of H.G. Wells.

demonstrate how evolutionary
fantasies readied the pinnacle of synthesis between evolutionary science and
the imagination at the close of ihe century.
