@Belecqua, in that long post you gave examples of various counterreaction to the mechanistic philosphoies of the early scientific revolution. IMO Emmamuel Swedenborg, Blake's contemporary, stands out because it is almost as if he embodied that tension, having first been a noteworthy scientist before his visionary experiences started. His doctrine of correspondences radically reintroduces narrative into materiality.
The New Atheist polemics against religion are not just rehashed positivism they are also heavily invested in foundationalist epistomology.
