Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Herbals deal primarily with medicinal and culinary herbs, their real and supposed properties and virtues, and in origin they go back at least to the Ancient Greeks. During the 16th and 17th centuries they developed into attractively illustrated printed books, the forerunners of modern botanical and pharmaceutical textbooks. Agnes Arber's Herbals (first published in 1912, much revised in 1938) stands as the major survey of the period 1470 to 1670 when botany evolved into a scientific discipline separate from herbalism, a development reflected in contemporary herbals. Every work on herbals since 1912 has been indebted to Arber's classic.The present volume in the Cambridge Science Classics series, while retaining her main text unaltered, supplements this with two of her later writings on herbals, provides a biographical introduction, greatly extends the bibliography and has annotations modifying the original text through later enquiry.This added material will make this re-issue invaluable to librarians, historians of science, book-lovers and all with an interest in the early development of botany, pharmacy and book production, even if they already possess the long-unobtainable 1938 edition.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 8vo (24 cm), front., XXIV, 328 pp, 26 plates and 151 illustrations in the text. Publisher's cloth (spine sunned, occasional foxing inside). A New Edition, Rewritten and Enlarged (originally published 1912). The standard scholarly history of the printed herbal in Europe, tracing its evolution from a botanical and secondarily an artistic standpoint across two centuries, from the earliest fifteenth-century printed herbals (the Herbarium of Apuleius Platonicus, the Latin Herbarius, the German Herbarius, and the Hortus sanitatis) through the great botanical Renaissance of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in Germany, the Low Countries, Italy, Spain and Portugal, Switzerland, France, and England. Substantially rewritten and enlarged for this second edition, with new sections on botany in the Iberian peninsula and on the origin of the herbarium as a botanical practice, and the bibliography (Appendix II) trebled and newly indexed by subject (Appendix III). The work traces the parallel evolution of plant description, plant classification, and botanical illustration, and devotes a chapter to the doctrine of signatures and astrological botany. Richly illustrated with portraits of the great herbalists -- Brunfels, Fuchs, Bock, Dodoens, Mattioli, Gesner, Bauhin, Gerard, Parkinson, Cesalpino, Alpino, and others -- and with reproductions of woodcuts and engravings from the herbals themselves, including plates after the Vienna Dioscorides, the Herbarium Apuleii Platonici, and botanical drawings by Leonardo da Vinci and Dürer. Arber, a distinguished plant morphologist and historian of science, first conceived the book after encountering Lyte's translation of Dodoens' herbal in 1894. The work remains a foundational reference for the study of early printed botanical literature.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Agnes Arber (1879-1960) was a prominent British botanist specialising in plant morphology and the history of botany. In 1946 she became the first female botanist to be elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. First published in 1912 and issued in an expanded second edition in 1938, this volume traces the history and development of printed herbals between 1470 and 1670. This two-hundred-year period was the most prolific for the publication of herbals, and significantly saw the emergence of botany as a scientific discipline within the study of natural history. Although Arber mentions the medical aspects of the herbal, her analysis remains focused on investigating herbals from a botanical view, with chapters devoted to the evolution of plant descriptions, classifications and illustrations. Her book remains the standard work on this subject. The text of this volume is taken from a 1953 reissue of the 1938 second edition.…
