Summary "The Voice of Science in Nineteenth-Century Literature" by Robert Emmons Rogers is an anthology of prose and poetry compiled in the early 20th century. This collection is designed for educational use, particularly for students studying the impact of scientific thought on literature during the 19th century. It explores the interplay between the evolving field of science and literary expression, emphasizing how scientific ideas shaped the cultural landscape of the time. The opening of this work provides a framework for understanding the connections between literature and scientific thought in 19th-century England. It establishes that the anthology serves as a resource for students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, highlighting how literature reflects the profound changes brought about by scientific discoveries. The introduction describes how the collection illustrates the central theme of humanity's evolving understanding of its place in the universe, influenced by advances in science and thought. Rogers summarizes the significant movements of thought during that period, framing literature as a response to the shifting intellectual currents shaped by science.
