Abstract
James Thomson’s magnificent and all-embracing work, The Seasons, is one of the representative long poems in the eighteenth century, which involves politics, sociology, religion, philosophy, science and many other fields. However, from the content and form of the poem, it contains the scientific rationalism elements. Using the important tool of reason, Thomson probes into nature scientifically and speaks highly of nature’s splendid scene, in order to express his respect for the sublime of God, the cause of which is deeply rooted in his keen interest in Newtonianism under the background of the British Enlightenment.
Key words: James Thomson, The Seasons, scientific rationalism, Newtonianism
