AB  - This edited collection aims at highlighting the various uses of water in sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth-century England, while exploring the tensions between those who praised the curative virtues of waters and those who rejected them for their supposedly harmful effects. Divided into three balanced sections, the collection includes contributions from renowned specialists of early modern culture and literature as well as rising young scholars as it seeks to establish a dialogue between different methodologies, and explain why the spa-related issues examined still resonate in todays society. Sophie Chiari is Professor of English Literature at the Universite Clermont Auvergne, France, specializing in ecocritical studies. Previous publications include Shakespeares Representation of Weather, Climate and Environment (2019). She is currently working on Shakespeares Environment: A Dictionary (2021). Samuel Cuisinier-Delorme is a lecturer at the Universite Clermont Auvergne where his research focuses on English Literature from the 16th _18th centuries. Samuel lives and works in Vichy, where he is developing research projects on waters and balneology. He is currently planning a seminar on spa literature and is also working on a forthcoming book in French on the same topic, Regards sur le thermalisme europeen du Moyen Age au XIXe siecle (2021).
