  Literature and Revolution in England 1640-1660 And Toys from American Childhood: 1845-1945 by Tim Luke, ISBN 0942620445   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This wide-ranging and highly original study demonstrates that these central years of the seventeenth century were a turning point, not only in the political, social and religious history of the nation, but also in the use and meaning of language and literature.
At a time of crisis and constitutional turmoil, literature itself acquired new functions and played a dynamic part in the fragmentation of religious and political authority.
Through literature, people revised their understanding of themselves and attempted to transform their predicament.

 Literature and Science, 1660-1834 published by Pickering & Chatto   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Its appearance is particularly timely because the periodisation of history, the nature of the new knowledge and the relationship between literature, history and culture are currently receiving sustained and fruitful critical attention.
Science and literature were until recently two fields thought to be distinct, fenced in by special languages and cultivating different bodies of knowledge.
Literature and Science reproduces, in facsimile, primary texts which embody the polymathic nature of the literature of science, and the editorial matter provides overviews and extensive references, with a consolidated index at the end of each four-volume set.
