It is often thought that the numerous contradictory perspectives in Margaret Cavendish's writings demonstrate her inability to reconcile her feminism with her conservative, royalist politics. In this book Lisa Walters challenges this view and demonstrates that Cavendish's ideas more closely resemble republican thought, and that her methodology is the foundation for subversive political, scientific and gender theories. With an interdisciplinary focus Walters closely examines Cavendish's work and its context, providing the reader with an enriched understanding of women's contribution to early modern scientific theory, political philosophy, culture and folklore. Considering also Cavendish's ideas in relation to Hobbes and Paracelsus, this volume is of great interest to scholars and students of literature, philosophy, history of ideas, political theory, gender studies and history of science.

Her poems, her plays, her philosophies, her orations, her discourses. All these folios and quartos in which, she protested, her real life was enshrined. Moulder in the gloom of public libraries, or are decanted into tiny thimbles which hold sex drops of profusion.--Virginia Woolf, writing about Margaret CavendishIn light of recent critical interest in Utopian and futuristic writing, as well as historical figures in women's literary works, the reissue of the Description of The New Blazing World, first published in 1666 and one of the earliest examples of science fiction writing, is essential. It tells the story of a voyage to another work of speculative science in which women effortlessly rise to absolute power and sexual roles blur. Cavendish, as a character in the fantasy herself, emerges as an ironically self designated hermaphroditic spectacle who dramatizes a heroic figure of woman, ingeniously turning patriarchalized scenes of power and seduction to her own benefit. Dismissed by Pepsys as mad, conceited, and ridiculous, Cavendish lived a life devoted to excess, and the number of elaborately produced books she wrote and published at her own expense during her twenty year career became her most radical and deliberate break from contemporary social etiquette.

In pre-World War I San Francisco, Maude Cavendish, a lovely young divorcee and society reporter becomes the target of German spies who mistake her for a renowned scientist's daughter

The prolific Margaret Cavendish (1623-1673) published books on natural philosophy as well as stories, plays, poems, orations, allegories, and letters. Her mature philosophical system offered a unique panpsychist theory of Nature as composed of a continuous, non-atomistic, perceiving, knowing matter. In contrast to the dominant philosophical thinking of her day, Cavendish argued that all matter has free will and can choose whether or not to follow Nature's rules. The Well-Ordered Universe explores the development of Cavendish's natural philosophy from the atomism of her 1653 poems to the panpsychist materialism of her 1668 Grounds of Natural Philosophy. Deborah Boyle argues that her natural philosophy, her medical theories, and her social and political philosophy are all informed by an underlying concern with order, regularity, and rule-following. This focus on order reveals interesting connections among apparently disparate elements of Cavendish's philosophical program, including her views on gender, on animals and the environment, and on sickness and health. Focusing on the role of order in Cavendish's philosophy also helps reveal key differences between her natural philosophy and her more conservative social and political philosophy. Cavendish believed that humans' special desire for public recognition often leads to an unruly ambition, causing humans to disrupt society in ways not seen in the rest of Nature. Thus, The Well-Ordered Universe defends Cavendish as a royalist who endorsed absolute monarchy and a rigid social hierarchy for maintaining order in human society.

En Las bolas de Cavendish se violan todas las leyes del Universo: desde la equivalencia de la masa y la energía o Ley de Einstein hasta la Tercera Ley de Newton. Unos profesores de la U de A y sus undergraduates, acalorados en la polémica pero muy orgullosos de que su universidad figure en el ranking de las universidades del mundo en el puesto 1550, se adentran en los misterios del cosmos. Vallejo, el fundador de la nueva ciencia de la imposturología, nos exhorta en este librito sin creciente que rige al mundo. Todavía no es el apocalipsis. Pero ya casi. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION One of the most intimate, controversial, and vital voices in Spanish literature. This book goes against all the universe’s logical laws: from Einsten’s law of the equivalence of mass and energy, to Newton’s third Law. Physics students from A University, raddled up about the controversy, but happy to be part of the university ranked number 1550 in the world, dive into the mysteries of the cosmos. Vallejo urges us to increase the chaos posed by the Second Law of Thermodynamics, that of the growing turmoil that rules the world. It is not the apocalypse yet, but it will soon arrive.
