Book and dust jacket are like new. Jacket is preserved in mylar cover. xviii/234 pages. "Literature has its own strategies for ordering informatio…n. In this elegant and insightful book about the formation of knowledge in seventeenth-century France, Harriet Stone asks what those strategies conveyed about the limits of science and about the cultural environment of the period. A propensity for reason and control pervaded literature as well as science, allowing classical literature to serve as a unique laboratory for exploring the model of representation developed by science. Literary texts have influenced the establishment and transformation of the paradigms grounding knowledge by drawing attention to meanings that the paradigms fail to name. Stone identifies not only the momentous achievement of the discovery of the scientific method but also the more subtle process of experimentation in literature through which ideas were continually tested and redefined. She offers close readings of works by Rotrou, Corneille, Racine, Moliere, La Rochefoucauld, and Lafayette, as well as by Descartes, Furetiere, and Pascal. Her first and last chapters frame the literary texts within a discussion of Foucault's analysis of classical science. Classical writers began to encode their own world. Once they did, not only science but literature became an authority for mapping knowledge. Notwithstanding the classical period's efforts to affirm the unity of knowledge, Stone concludes that knowledge was never complete or certain. Literature's capacity to rework the model through which it assigns meanings proves essential to unfolding both the art and the science of representation.".

Zustand: very good. Ithaca, NY. Cornell University Press, 1996. Hardcover. No dustjacket. 234pp.In this book I situate literature as an equal partner in the search for knowledge that developed in seventeenth-century France under the watchful eye of the absolutist court. I take literature's capacity to order a view of the world,…detecting in the vision of things offered by writers of fiction a key to understanding how meaning is fashioned. In the crafting of literature's forms, in the display of its art, there exists a legitimate science. This is not the science of discovery but the science of representing what is known. Thus by science I am referring to the scienta of the classical period, the paradigms that order knowledge."
