  • Biblioqraphy & Natural History
    BIBLIOQRAPHY & NATURAL HISTORY Essays presented at a Conference convened in June 1964 by Thomas R. Buckman Lawrence, Kansas 1966 University of Kansas Libraries University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 27 Copyright 1966 by the University of Kansas Libraries Library of Congress Catalog Card number: 66-64215 Printed in Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A., by the University of Kansas Printing Service. Introduction The purpose of this group of essays and formal papers is to focus attention on some aspects of bibliography in the service of natural history, and possibly to stimulate further studies which may be of mutual usefulness to biologists and historians of science, and also to librarians and museum curators. Bibli• ography is interpreted rather broadly to include botanical illustration. Further, the intent and style of the contributions reflects the occasion—a meeting of bookmen, scientists and scholars assembled not only to discuss specific examples of the uses of books and manuscripts in the natural sciences, but also to consider some other related matters in a spirit of wit and congeniality. Thus we hope in this volume, as in the conference itself, both to inform and to please. When Edwin Wolf, 2nd, Librarian of the Library Company of Phila• delphia, and then Chairman of the Rare Books Section of the Association of College and Research Libraries, asked me to plan the Section's program for its session in Lawrence, June 25-27, 1964, we agreed immediately on a theme. With few exceptions, we noted, the bibliography of natural history has received little attention in this country, and yet it is indispensable to many biologists and to historians of the natural sciences.

  • The Linnaean Botanical Nomenclature(S) As “A Point of View on the World”
    From theory of ideas to theory of succedaneum: The Linnaean botanical nomenclature(s) as “a point of view on the world” Philippe Selosse 1. Introduction Botanical nomenclature did not arise by spontaneous generation: its elaboration is the continuation of the Greek and Latin folk nomenclature, which was based on processes of classification and categorization called folk processes (Berlin 1972), and of the logical nomenclature of the sixteenth century (Selosse 2004, 2007). On the whole, the elaboration of nomenclature took a great deal of time, more or less twenty centuries. The consequence is that nomenclature is not the fact of one speaker, but the product of many speakers over a very long period of time, connected with several epistemic contexts. Moreover, these contexts are characterized by non-specialization with regard to disciplines: philosophy, language and botanical research were simultaneously considered. The aim of this paper, therefore, is not to represent Linnaeus as a pioneer or a maker of binominal nomenclature out of nothing. On the one hand, Linnaeus ap- pears, not as person, but through his works, as the representative, the paragon, of the turning point in another epistemic context: his work constitutes a gen- uine synthesis of earlier theories and those that followed. On the other hand, the Linnaean nomenclature is, for the first time, one which is self-conscious, that is, which is conscious of being a system as such: in this scientific consciousness we can paradigmatically observe the articulation of plant classification in nomen- clature, and vice versa. My aim is to draw from Linnaeus’ works his theory of nomenclature within the epistemic context of the Enlightenment, that is, by taking into consideration its own complexity of blended scientific, philosophi- cal and linguistic conceptualizations.

    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.

  • Linnaeus' Philosophia Botanica
    linnaeus’ Philosophia Botanica STEPHEN FREER Stephen Freer, born at Little Compton in1920, was a classical scholar at Eton and Trinity College Cambridge. In 1940, he was approached by the Foreign Office and worked at Bletchley Park and in London. Later, Stephen was employed by the Historical Manuscripts Commission, retiring in 1962 due to ill health. He has continued to work since then, first as a volunteer for the MSS department of the Bodleian Library with Dr William Hassall, and then on a part-time basis at the Oxfordshire County Record. In 1988, he was admitted as a lay reader in the Diocese of Oxford. His previous book was a translation of Wharton’s Adenographia, published by OUP in 1996. A fellow of the Linneau Society of London, Stephen lives with his wife Frederica in Gloucestershire. They have a daughter, Isabel. COVER ILLUSTRATION Rosemary Wise, who designed and painted the garland of flowers on the book cover, is the botanical illustrator in the Department of Plant Sciences in the University of Oxford, associate staff at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and a fellow of the Linneau Society of London. In1932 Carl Linnaeus made an epic journey to Lapland, the vast area across arctic Norway, Sweden, and Finland. In 1988, to mark the bicentenary of the Linneau Society of London, a group from Great Britain and Sweden retraced his route. Rosemary, was the official artist and the flowers featured here are taken from ones painted at that time, plants with which Linnaeus would have been familiar. The garland of flowers surrounds an image of the medallion portrait of Linnaeus by C.

Biology – A Science or just an Umbrella? 4. Concepts and disciplines 5. Conclusions ABSTRACT: BIOLOGY AND ITS DISCIPLINARY PARTITIONS – INTELLECTUAL AND ACADEMIC CONSTRAINTS A productive confrontation between biology and philosophy should be based on a serious effort to recover a comprehensive vision of the living world as the subject of a unitary science. Key steps in the emergence of biology as the science of all living beings in the first half of the XIX century are outlined. Academic constraints and personal agendas shaping emergence and fate of individual biological disciplines are examined, with examples from developmental and evolutionary biology. Disciplinary divisions within the life sciences can be seriously limiting for the philosopher of science, much less so for the scientist, although many concepts of foundational importance for different biological disciplines are nomadic concepts that take on the most diverse meanings according to the contexts in which they are used. It is suggested to try a reversal between disciplines and key concepts, turning the latter into anchors for a potentially nomadic set of disciplines. KEYWORDS: history of biology; disciplinary structure of science; nomadic concepts; anchor concepts. 1. Introduction In a well-documented and incisive article entitled Inclusion and exclusion in the history of developmental biology, Nick Hopwood1 demonstrates how the articulation of a science in specialties impinges on decisions on what are the important problems and how these must be addressed. This conditioning has a social dimension, as the division of a science into specialized disciplines affects 1 N.

He was educated for the medical profession and took his degree, but devoted himself to zoology, especially to entomology. For many years he was keeper of the entomological department of the Berlin Natural History Museum and also a professor of zoology at the University of Berlin. About the year 1876, differences with the then director of the Berlin Museum induced him to resign his appointment in Berlin, and he subsequently accepted the professorship of Zoology at Greifswald, which he held until his death. Gerstaecker was an industrious and thorough worker in all departments of entomology. Among his principal works may be noted the “Arthropoda” in the “Handbuch der Zoologie” (1863) and the same phylum in Bronn´s “Klassen und Ordnungen der Tierreichs”.
