Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research produced published papers on the historical, philosophical, and scientific contexts of Wordsworth’s poetry. Furthermore, the research resulted in more than 20 presentations on (a) the relationship between science and literature, (b) the character of the virtuoso in literature, and (c) the role of the virtuoso in liberal arts education. Field research in Germany resulted in publications on the subject of antiquarianism, technology, and travel in the poetry of William Wordsworth. Field research in Italy on the origins of the virtuoso in the early modern period created research notes and also laid the foundation for future research. Finally, the research results included two book-length single-author creative publications that have helped to promote the research in the field of arts and culture.
