Author Information

Katarzyna Lecky's research explores how concepts of social justice articulated in natural philosophy and the new sciences informed Renaissance literature. She has published in Exemplaria, The Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies, Philological Quarterly, Reformation, Studies in English Literature, and Spenser Studies, as well as edited collections, and has earned fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies and the Mellon Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Renaissance Society of America, and the Folger Shakespeare, Huntington, and Newberry Libraries, among others. Her next book project examines botanical models of nativity, natality, and naturalization in seventeenth-century literature and medicine.
