Session Description:

This roundtable will examine early modern generative bodies by placing them in relation to literary texts and natural philosophy of the period. How can the studies of medicine, anatomy, midwifery, botany, gynecology, physics, meteorology, horticulture, and alchemy enrich our understanding of the early modern environment and gendered embodiment?

Subjects:

• Comparative Literature – General

• British Literature – Renaissance and Elizabethan
