Renaissance Ecopolitics from Shakespeare to Bacon: Cosmopolis Unbound is poised to illuminate the relatively small but burgeoning number of ecocritical studies devoted to this period by showing how the classical concept of the cosmopolis, the harmonious integration of the Order of Nature (cosmos) with the Order of Society (polis), was at once revived and systematically dismantled in the Renaissance. This exciting new study demonstrates that the Renaissance is the hinge, the crucial turning point in the human-nature relationship and examines the persisting ecological consequences of the nature-state's demise.
