Landmarks of Botanical History, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint): A Study of Certain Epochs in the Development of the Science of Botany Part - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Landmarks of Botanical History, Part 1.—Prior to 1562 a.D. offers a scholarly survey of how botany took shape as a philosophy of plant life. It frames the science as a distinct pursuit from farming or medicine, focused on plant form, life, and their relations to the mineral and animal worlds.
The work centers on pivotal figures and eras that redirected botanical study. It highlights Theophrastus as an early model and examines the German reformers Brunfels and Fuchs, along with Tragus and Cordus, who moved descriptive botany and plant iconography forward in meaningful ways. The author links these efforts to broader questions about how plants are identified, named, and understood beyond mere uses.
- Learn how early editors and artists helped plant knowledge become more reliable through illustrations and careful descriptions.
- Explore the shift from viewing plants mainly for utility to treating them as objects of scientific study.
- See how the ideas of taxonomy and plant comparison emerged in 16th-century Europe.
- Discover biographical sketches and the intellectual climate that shaped foundational botany.
Ideal for readers of the history of science and botany who want a clear, contextual view of botany’s earliest landmark moments.

The author argues that botany, as it is understood today, is a relatively recent discipline, with its foundations laid in the 18th century. Through biographical sketches of key figures in the field, the book highlights the contributions of botanists who have shaped our understanding of plant life and form.
