While the early 1990s saw science carefully explained in the drama of ideas of Tom Stoppard or Michael Frayn, more recent writing and devising has also introduced scientific ideas without having characters discuss them at length. Yet whether or not they choose to expose these ideas didactically, these contemporary artists use science as a source of structuring concepts and metaphors, turning the language of particle physics, evolution or mathematics into ways of speaking about human experience.This paper examines ways in which these scientific references to the natural world tend to suggest hidden coherence and connections in dramatic works. These connections can be a theme in the face of fragmented human experience, but also a formal trait in cases where the shape of the play is itself discontinuous. The suggestion of coherence through images drawn form the natural world then plays a metaphorical role, implying that such coherence also underlies fragmented dramatic forms or narratives. In Theatre de Complicite’s Mnemonic (1999), a theatre piece about human memory in which a tree leaf provides a structuring image for the multiple fragments woven together by the company, organic form thus produces a sense of underlying organicism1. But a sense of structuring coherence can also derived from non‑organic forms, such as constellations, sub‑atomic p","PeriodicalId":114213,"journal":{"name":"Living Matter / Literary Forms (20th - 21rst centuries)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132406505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On compte aussi a son actif plusieurs articles a propos des papillons, publies par des journaux scientifiques. Au cours des annees 1940, Nabokov est conservateur pour la section sur les papillons du Musee de zoologie comparee de l’universite Harvard, et il developpe une theorie – que peu prennent au serieux a l’epoque – a propos d’un groupe de papillons connu sous le nom d’Argus (Blues). Il croyait en effet que ceux‑ci avaient migre d’Europe aux Ameriques via le detroit de Bering, en vagues successives, sur une periode d’une dizaine de millions d’annees. Cette theorie se revelera etonnamment juste, comme le demontrent en 2011 Roger Vila et son equipe, grâce au sequencage genetique. C’est cependant sans acces a l’information genetique que Nabokov formule son hypothese. Il observe simplement le resultat de l’action des genes et les variations structurelles differenciant un specimen d’un autre. Ces observations lui donnent une comprehension intuitive de ce qui se passe au niveau des nucleotides (elements de base de l’ADN), comme s’il avait pu visualiser l’image animee du developpement de l’or","PeriodicalId":114213,"journal":{"name":"Living Matter / Literary Forms (20th - 21rst centuries)","volume":"174 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122955614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
