Bonus Episode: Eclipses in the Language of Shakespeare

Subject

Shakespeare, eclipses, literature

Description

Imagine a time when new – and sometimes unsettling – scientific discoveries are changing the way people think about the universe. How did an artist like Shakespeare think about the sun, moon, and planets? And how do these popular conceptions of the solar system echo in today’s world?

In this bonus episode of Eclipsing History, we explore “Eclipses in the Language of Shakespeare.” This is based on Dr. Stephanie Gearhart’s lecture for the Eclipse Speaker Series at BGSU in 2024. For more information, check bgsu.edu/eclipsinghistory
