‘On reading Shelley’s, A Defense of Poetry, the question insistently occurs why there is no similar A Defense of Science written by a scientist of the equal endowment.’
Shelley chose to write an essay to praise his subject/profession. Similarly, the absence of an equal endowment from the scientists can be understood as a matter of expression. Faraday, for instance, chose to show his praise through his remarkable inventions. The form of expression differs but it can be observed that both poets and scientists are highly appreciative of their subjects.
