Afforded only limited access to the male-dominated sciences, many women writers nevertheless made significant contributions to intellectual culture in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Through various forms of literary discourse, women attempted to engage with scientific ideas.��These women, too,��were female pioneers in science,��and��are vitally important in the course of women's history.��Looking at literary discourse, including poetry, fiction and non-fiction, diaries, and drama, this collection offers��remarkable and fascinating examples of women writers who integrated scientific materi.
