Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Progress of Civil Society: A Didactic Poem, in Six Books The learned reader will perceive, that the general design of the following work is taken from the latter part of the fifth book of Lucretius, beginning with verse 923; and that I have also borrowed many particular passages, which I should have given at the bottom of the page, did I not rather wish that the whole should be read in its proper order, as a text, upon which I have written a commentary, as nearly in the same style and manner, as my poor abilities, and the inferior language which I employ, will allow; for that style and manner I consider as perfect. Lucretius is, in my opinion, the great poet of the Latin language, always equal to his subject, and never either above or below it; plain, where only plain sense was intended to be expressed, and highly ornamented and elevated, where brilliant imagery required brilliant colouring; but still ornamented and elevated by the genuine beauty and intrinsic dignity of his own language, and not by any adscititious finery of foreign idiom, or venerable stiffness of antiquated phraseology. His style is purely Latin; clear, simple, elegant, and vigorous; never overstrained by gigantic efforts of supernatural sublimity, or debased by affected ease and colloquial vulgarity. Alike in the loftiest flights of poetry and deepest discussions of philosophy, his verse flows equal to the occasion, as the spontaneous efflux of a mind of such vast and universal energy, as never to need any extraordinary exertion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While historians of science have focused significant attention on Erasmus Darwin’s scientific ideas and milieu, relatively little attention has been paid to Darwin as a literary writer. In The Poetry of Erasmus Darwin: Enlightened Spaces, Romantic Times, Martin Priestman situates Darwin’s three major poems - The Loves of the Plants (1789), The Economy of Vegetation (1791) and The Temple of Nature (1803) - and Darwin himself within a large, polymathic late-Enlightenment network of other scientists, writers, thinkers and social movers and shakers. Interpreting Darwin’s poetry in terms of Darwin’s broader sense of the poetic text as a material space, he posits a significant shift from the Enlightenment’s emphases on conceptual spaces to the Romantic period’s emphases on historical time. He shows how Darwin’s poetry illuminates his stance toward all the major physical sciences and his well-formulated theories of evolution and materially based psychology. Priestman’s study also offers the first substantial accounts of Darwin’s mythological theories and their links to Enlightenment Rosicrucianism and Freemansonry, and of the reading of history that emerges from the fragment-poem The Progress of Society, a first-ever printed edition of which is included in an appendix. Ultimately, Priestman’s book offers readers a sustained account of Darwin’s polymathic Enlightenment worldview and cognate poetics in a period when texts are too often judged by their adherence to a retrospectively constructed ’Romanticism’.
