Abstract
Knellwolf's chapter looks at the ways in which translations of scientific texts, including Alphra Behn's and Elizabeth Carter's versions of, respectively, Bernard le Bovier de Fontenelle and Francesco Algarotti, affected the subject of science in late seventeenth-century and eighteenth-century England.
