Literature and Science on MLA Commons 11 years, 7 months agoI thought some of you who have posted might like to see the power point I have been using to speak to groups about our film project.

I am stepping back from the F2F meeting of Galileo and Will Shakespeare to focus on why Shakespeareans get apoplexy over the attempts of astronomers who attempt to read Hamlet (Peter Usher), for example as containing clues to Shakespeare’s knowledge of “the new philosophy” of Copernicus’ heliocentric solar…[Read more]
