Description

Lab Lit: Exploring Literary and Cultural Representations of Science is the first formal, systematic, scholarly investigation of laboratory literature from the perspective of literary studies.

Lab Lit as a new genre has received a lot of public and media attention due to its compelling presentation of science practitioners and the relatable explanations of the scientific advancements that have shaped modern society and will continue to do so.

However, the genre has been largely overlooked by scholars.

This book is an introduction to the world of science for those who up till now have been immersed primarily in the world of literature.

The anthology contains essays that discuss Lab Lit novels using a variety of analytical approaches.

It also features theoretical essays that explore the social and literary backgrounds of Lab Lit and help the reader position the critical pieces within appropriate contexts.
