Noah Heringman is Associate Professor of English at the University of Missouri–Columbia. He is the editor of Romantic Science: The Literary Forms of Natural History.
A fascinating study of the rocks of Romanticism, the geology of
German and British thinking that flowed out from the field work of
early hammer-toting scientists into the libraries, the natural
history museums, and the scientific 'cabinets' of Europe.... Noah
Heringman has written an important work of literary criticism that
does justice to the term 'interdisciplinary' by uniting literary
scholarship with the wider sweep of scientific history.... It
should be required reading for all professors and graduate students
of Romanticism, in the widest sense of that word.
