- fuzzfactor 3y agoNobody well-known any more. Probably have to dig through the "literature" ;)
- wolverine876 3y agoWalt Whitman, "Song of Myself", in Leaves of Grass. Possibly the most famous book of poetry in the US, at least. Apparently you need to do some reading of that "literature", as you call it - the kind that doesn't come with an abstract! :)
- fuzzfactor 3y ago>Possibly the most famous book of poetry in the US That's why I was confident it wouldn't be a difficult search ;) >Leaves of Grass The exact literature I was talking about. Seriously though, I appreciate your posting the abstract (and attribution) and I'm sure a lot of other visitors have enjoyed it. Some concepts really stand the test of time a lot more than others.
- wolverine876 3y agoWalt Whitman's "Song of Myself", in one of the most famous books of poetry ever (responding to the other commenter), Leaves of Grass. I don't know that Whitman meant to talk about science, but whether he was conscious of it or not, he is! I came across the poem (again) recently and immediately saw that section for what it is - to me. Much of the poem is about sex and a free spirit - so, science as sex? The sex of science? :)
