Synopsis

""Natural History in Shakespeare's Time"" is a book written by H.W. Seager that provides a comprehensive look at the natural world during the time of William Shakespeare. The book is a collection of extracts from various sources that Shakespeare would have been familiar with, such as books on botany, zoology, and geology. These extracts are presented in their original language, with annotations and explanations provided by the author. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the classification of plants and animals, the properties of minerals, and the study of the heavens. It also provides insights into the beliefs and superstitions of the time, such as the belief in witches and the medicinal properties of various plants. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural world during the Elizabethan era and how it influenced Shakespeare's works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
