Reseña del libro "Science Meets Poetry 3: Proceedings From Esof2012 in Dublin (en Inglés)"
What mysterious forces bring Science and Poetry together? Why did William Hamilton, Tycho Brahe and Marie Curie all write verse? How is it that Omar Khayyam wrote a treatise on algebra and why was Percy Bysshe Shelley fascinated by chemistry? To the contrary, why did Mary Shelley dream up the tale of Frankenstein? Poets from all over Europe gather at each Euroscience Open Forum ESOF to consider the complex relationship between Science and Poetry. From their poems and from their debates, discover a fruitful dialogue between advanced research and the poetry of our times. Wth contributions from more than thirty contemporary poets, which include the President of Ireland and one Nobel Laureate of literature: Nadine AMILE, Michel BENARD, Una BROWN, Mari-Noëlle CELERIER, CHAUNES, Jean-Patrick CONNERADE, Claude CUDEL, Carmel CUMMINS, Patrick CUNNINGHAM, Kate DEMPSEY, Noel DUFFEY, Angela FINN, Susan FLYNN, Assumpcio FORCADA, Christohe GOARANT, Seamus HEANEY, Vital HEURTEBIZE, Michael D.
