  • An Antillean Plant of Beauty, a French Botanist, and a German Name: Naming Plants in the Early Modern Atlantic World
    Estonian Journal of Ecology, 2012, 61, 1, 37–50 doi: 10.3176/eco.2012.1.05 An Antillean plant of beauty, a French botanist, and a German name: naming plants in the Early Modern Atlantic world Laura Hollsten Faculty of Arts, Åbo Akademi University, 20500 Åbo, Finland; [email protected] Received 10 December 2010, revised 7 March 2011, accepted 27 June 2011 Abstract. This paper investigates the naming of plants in the work of the French botanist Charles Plumier (1646–1704). Plumier made three trips to the French Antilles between 1690 and 1697, was appointed royal botanist in 1693, and published his first work, Description des Plantes de l’Amérique, in the same year. Plumier was the first ‘modern’ botanist to describe the flora of the Caribbean in a time when natural history underwent significant qualitative changes as a result of the European expansion and transatlantic contacts. Plumier’s ambition was to replace the confusing multitude of names given to New World plants with a universal taxonomically based nomenclature. His modernity and scientific ethos manifest themselves in his neutral way of organizing the plants according to a taxonomic system and his use of a Latin nomenclature, often naming plants after well-known botanists. Through Plumier’s naming process, I argue, it is possible to highlight the colonial and Atlantic context of his work, his network as part of the scientific elite of his country, and his professionalism resulting from years of botanical studies. Key words: history of botany, early modern natural history, plant nomenclature. INTRODUCTION According to a story entitled ‘The Tree of Riches’, the French botanist Charles Plumier decided that he would like to travel the world and get rich (Pellowski, 1990).

  • Gardenias, Magnolias and Oleanders
    Gardenias, Magnolias and Oleanders Gardenia jasminoides is cultivated throughout the gardens of New Orleans as a sweet-scented flowering shrub. The Gardenia is a genus of 142 species of flowering plants in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, native to the tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, southern Asia, Australasia and Oceania. Several species occur on the island of Hawaii, and is known in to many people in New Orleans as the Cape jasmine. The fragrant and beautiful gardenia Since this species originated in warm humid tropical areas, it demands high humidity to thrive and bright (not direct) light. It flourishes in acidic soils with good drainage and thrives in Crescent City temperatures. Flowering is from about mid-spring to mid-summer, with May the predominant month. The stunningly beautiful shrub with the fragrant white flowers did not derive its name from “the garden”, however. It all began in Charleston, South Carolina, where there lived a Scottish-born botanist named Dr. Alexander Garden (1730 -1791). He was a member of several learned societies and was a fellow of the Royal Society in London. He collected all manner of flora and fauna, which he packed up and sent to London zoologist John Ellis and famous Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus. He bundled up and sent them various magnolias and some Gordonia specimens, but the plant that bears his name had nothing to do with his particular efforts. It wasn’t even American. Linnaeus was strongly persuaded by Ellis to name something after Garden, so the Gardenia became the name for the Cape jasmine, also known as Cape jessamine.

Heywood The cultural heritage of Mediterranean botanic gardens* Abstract Heywood, V. H.: The cultural heritage of Mediterranean botanic gardens. — Bocconea 28: 161- 172. 2019. — ISSN: 1120-4060 printed, 2280-3882 online. Mediterranean botanic gardens represent a rich and diverse cultural heritage, both tangible and intangible. They include spectacular landscapes and the plantings include many important intro- ductions of both ornamental and economically important species. The gardens also contain many buildings of great architectural merit, some historic, some modern. Also important are the historic glasshouses and shade houses. Many of these gardens contain important herbarium collections that have served a key role in the preparation of Floras and major botanical libraries containing historical works of great value as well as works of art, sculptures paintings, drawings, and other illustrations and invaluable historic archives. The intangible cultural heritage of these gardens is represented by the impact that they have had the inhabitants of the cities and towns in which they are located and on generations of visitors – students, professionals and the public. With the decline of teaching and research in botany as a university discipline, some of these collections are at risk of dispersal or an even worse fate. In the face of these uncertainties a series of proposals to help safeguard this invaluable heritage is given, including the compilation of an inventory of these his- torically important buildings, libraries, works of art and archives and the use of the latest scanning and imaging techniques so that a visual record is prepared.

    ON SOME SOCIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY BOTANISTS René Sigrist* In the eighteenth century, the systematic study of plants was already an old story that could be traced back to the Renaissance and even to clas- sical antiquity. Yet the existence of botany as a science independent of medicine was not as old. It would be difficult to ascertain to what extent it was already a discipline practised by specialized scholars—not to men- tion professionals.1 In 1751 Linné, in his Philosophia botanica, had tried to define the aims and the ideal organisation of such a discipline. Yet, despite the many students who came to hear him in Uppsala, and his eminent position within the Republic of Letters, it was not in his power to impose professional standards on other botanists. Diverging concep- tions of the science of plants persisted at least until the final triumph of Jussieu’s natural method of classification, in the early nineteenth century. The emergence of the professional botanist would be a still longer pro- cess, with important differences from one country to another. The pres- ent article aims to analyse the social status of botanists in the eighteenth century and in the early nineteenth century, a period which can be char- acterised as the golden age of scientific academies.2 Starting with Linné’s conception of the division of tasks within the community of phytologues, it focuses on the social perception of botanists, on the structure of episto- lary links within the Republic of Botanists, and finally on the professional activities and social origins of the major contributors to the science of * Invited scholar (FWO Fellow) at Gent University, Department of Philosophy and Moral Sciences.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1964 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. CHARLES LORING JACKSON April 4,1847—October 31,1935 BY GEORGE SHANNON FORBES HARLES LORING JACKSON, a pioneer in American chemical edu- C cation and research, was born in Boston, April 4, 1847. His father, Patrick Tracy Jackson II, had a strong taste for scientific work; to help Jackson's grandfather, temporarily embarrassed, he entered business upon graduation from Harvard College in 1838. The grandfather, Patrick Tracy Jackson, was prominent in early New England cotton manufacture; he also built the Boston and Lowell railroad. Jackson's mother, Susan Mary (Loring), was a woman of marked intellectual ability who devoted much time to the education of her children. Her father, Charles G. Loring, was an eminent lawyer who often locked horns with Webster and Choate. Jackson's scientific interests were fostered by both parents from his early years. Although his preparation for college was ham- pered by illness, he entered Harvard College with the class of 1867, and was graduated in that year. His studies included quali- tative analysis, physiology, and botany; he was not, however, a high-ranking scholar. The Archives Department of Harvard University kindly al- lows me to quote at length from Jackson's autobiographical notes.

When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Pierre Magnol: His Life and Works Tony A)Etio, the Norrfs Arboretum of the Unlversfty of Pennsylvania
    ISSUE 74 HISGHOUS Pierre Magnol: His Life and Works Tony A)etio, The Norrfs Arboretum of the Unlversfty of Pennsylvania Having long admired the beauty and diversity of the genus Magna(in, I have known for quite some time that the name honors the French bota- nist Pierre Magnol (see van Manen, Mngnolin zoo3). But it was only in the last year that I started to wonder about the life of the man for whom this wonderful genus was named. After searching for biographical informa- tion I quickly learned that there was very little accessible information on Magnol, despite the popularity of growing magnolias. With this in mind, I began digging deeper and was inspired to write this article. Most of the biographical sources I found were in French from the 18oos, with the more recent information in English from an obscure book chapter (Steam 1973). Pierre Magnol (8 June 1638— zr May 1715 (Bamhart 1965)) was a leading 171H century botanist who was born, lived, worked, and died in Mont- pellier in southern France, and was widely known throughout Europe for his botanical knowledge and erudition. He came from a family of apothecaries: his grandfather Jean Magnol, father Claude, and brother Cesar, all took up that profession (Dulieu 1959). From a young age Mag- nol had been inspired to botanize in the area surrounding Montpellier, and being one of the youngest members of his family, had more choice and desired to become a physician (Dulieu 1959). To many Americans, myself included, Montpellier is a somewhat ob- scure and relatively unknown place (although on further investigation it sounds like a fascinating city to visit).

    WELLCOME INSTITUTE FOR THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE 183 Euston Road, London NW1 2BP 22501691489 HUGUENOTS IN THE MEDICAL WORLD Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2014 https://archive.org/details/b20456918 WELLCOME INSTITUTE FOR THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE 183 Euston Road, London NW1 HUGUENOTS IN THE MEDICAL WORLD AN EXHIBITION 23 September to 18 December 1985 Monday to Friday 9.45 a.m. to 5.15 p.m. WELLCOME COLLECTION Introduction This exhibition has been arranged at the suggestion of the Huguenot Society of London as part of the Huguenot Heritage celebrations commemorating the contribution of the Huguenot refugees to British life. The year 1985 marks the third centenary of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, which by removing the right to freedom of worship stimulated a mass migration of the French Protestant community, and is also the centenary of the foundation of the Huguenot Society of London. The Religious Background The term Huguenot, of doubtful etymology, had become established by the 1560s as a popular name for the French Protestants, or, more accurately, Calvinists. In England, however, it has customarily been used in a wider sense as a generic term to cover all Protestant refugees , including those from the Low Countries; this usage has been followed for the purposes of this exhibition. It has seemed reasonable to include refugees who arrived from the 16th century onwards, preceding the main wave of the late 17th century, and to say something about Protestant medical men who never left France, including some who eventually abjured their faith. Protestant emigration from the Low Countries in the late 16th century was in reaction to persecution by the Spanish rulers of the provinces.
