<p class="MsoNormal">Rehabilitating the lowly worm
into a powerful aesthetic trope, Janelle A. Schwartz
proposes a framework for understanding such a
strangely animate nature. Offering the worm as an
archetypal figure to recast the evolution of a
literary order alongside questions of taxonomy from
1740 to 1820 and on, Schwartz unearths Romanticism
as a rich humus of natural historical investigation
and literary creation.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"<i>Worm Work</i> is sophisticated and
full of unexpected analytic insights. Animal studies have
in general been preoccupied by big animals and the
nineteenth century, so it is important and refreshing to
go a little further back in time and down the great chain
of being to see how the lower animals have shaped, and
been shaped by, cultural standards." —<b>Charlotte Sleigh</b>,

Myrmecology</i><o:p></o:p></p>
