12 Linnaean Paper Tools
STAFFAN MÜLLER-WILLE 12 Linnaean paper tools In this chapter, I am going to explore a theme that has recently become a ‘hot topic’ in cultural studies of early modern science and medicine more generally: the use of ink-and-paper tools, both in script and print, to accumulate, process and communicate information across geographic, socio-political and cultural dis- tances. This is a topic that promises to deepen our understanding of the history of natural history, especially in its ‘classical’ period, which stretches between the tenth edition of Carl Linnaeus’s Systema naturae (1758) and Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of 1 Species (1859). In the first section, I shall provide an outline of the information economy of classical natural history, contending that it was characterised by an increasing heterogeneity, rather than homogeneity, of sources of knowledge. In the second section, I shall argue that the adoption of two information-processing devices that Linnaeus had introduced – namely binomial nomen- clatureandtheso-calledhierarchyoftaxonomicranks– gave discursive unity to classical natural history despite this heterogen- eity. The third section, finally, will present some examples of how these devices were deployed in the form of paper tools designed for the storage, indexing and exchange of information on plants and animals. Overall, I want to suggest that attention to the mater- ial construction and practical deployment of such paper tools can tell us a lot about natural history and its highly dynamic research culture. The information economy of classical natural history Late eighteenth and early nineteenth-century natural history experienced social and institutional changes that involved both diversifying and centralising tendencies. -

The Linnaean Collections Introduction In its creation the Linnaean methodology owes as much to Artedi as to Linneaus himself. So how did this come about? It was in the spring of 1729 when Linnaeus first met Artedi in Uppsala and they remained together for just over seven years. It was during this period that they not only became the closest of friends but also developed what was to become their modus operandi. Artedi was especially interested in natural history, mineralogy and chemistry; Linnaeus on the other hand was far more interested in botany. Thus it was at this point that they decided to split up the natural world between them. Artedi took the fishes, amphibia and reptiles, Linnaeus the plants, insects and birds and, while both agreed to work on the mammals, Linneaus obligingly gave over one plant family – the Umbelliforae – to Artedi “as he wanted to work out a new method of classifying them”. -
Zoist V2 N8 January 1845
THE ZOIST. No. VIII. JANUARY, 1845. 1. Intellectual Freedom—its Advocates and Opponents. Teach the people to think. How difficult the task ! The mass of men are the slaves of prejudice; they are afraid to think. In these days of boasted intelligence and vaunted intellectual progress such a change may almost assume the nature of a paradox, but strange as it may appear to the superficial observer—it is nevertheless true. It is really lamentable to reflect on the ignorance which prevails on the most important topics. Few, indeed, recognize their own position in the scale of creation, or appreciate any of the objects which they ought to fulfil during their existence. The search after truth the majority neglect, and yet they suffer severely from the want of that knowledge which would result from free and accurate investigation. We have said that men are afraid to think. Of what arc they afraid ? Afraid of the workings of their own cerebral organism—of the honest accumulation of facts, and of the conscientious conclusions to which they necessarily lead ! Why do they fear ? It is ignorance that makes cowards of them—it is ignorance that leads them to mistrust their own powers, and causes them to consider the honest investigator in the light of a criminal. No man is justified in neglecting the investigation of any subject bearing on his own or his neighbour’s freedom and happiness. To teach the truth, meaning by that expression, not merely the fashionable so phisms and orthodox opinions of the fleeting moment, but that which a free, careful, and laborious research convinces us is truth, is the highest duty of man. -

A few scattered notes exist which deal with the crabs and shrimps of the region, but no comprehensive account of the Decapoda of any of the three countries has ever been published apart from Young's (1900) "The stalk-eyed Crustacea of British Guiana, West Indies and Bermuda", which, however, also covers the West Indian Islands and Bermuda (including the deep-water species), and furthermore is incomplete. -

Bachelor project in the Danish-Swedish Horticulture programme 2005-02 (ISSN 1652-1579) Selecting plant species for the occasion of the 300th anniversary of Carl von Linné at Möckelsnäs Val av växter till Carl von Linnés 300-års jubileum på Möckelsnäs by Johannes Albertsson Simon Jeppson Biology Supervisor Helena Karlén Department of Crop Science, Swedish University of Agriculture Science, P.O. Box 44, SE-230 53 Alnarp 1 Tack Vi vill framför allt tacka Helena Karlén för hennes inspiration och idéer, men även för de många och långa diskussionerna som pågick under arbetets gång. Vi vill även tacka Mats Gustafsson för hans positiva inställning som fick oss att skriva denna rapport. Ett stort tack även till Inger Hjalmarsson och Johnny Andreasson som hjälpte oss med att hitta gamla namnsorter av grönsaker, frukt och bär. Vi vill även visa vår uppskattning till Lars Nexe som gav oss möjligheten att göra detta arbete. Ett speciellt tack till Mariette Manktelow och Karin Martinsson som båda tog sig tid och hjälpte oss med fakta angående Linnés liv. Till slut vill vi tacka Kenneth Lorentzon och Bruno Wollberg som båda tog sig tid att faktagranska våra utvalda arter. 2 Abstract This report was an outcome of a cooperation between “The Visitor and Knowledge Project Carl von Linné” and SLU, the Swedish University of Agricultural Science. The aim with the cooperation was to create a garden and to suggest suitable plants for an orangery already built. All species suggested should have a documented relationship with Carl von Linné. The project is located in the southern part of Sweden at an estate named Möckelsnäs not far away from Linné’s birthplace. -
Abhandlungen Herausgegeben Vom Naturwissenschaftlichen Verein Zu Bremen
; © Biodiversity Heritage Library, http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/; www.zobodat.at Linne's Beziehungen zu Neu-Granada. Von Hermann A. Schumacher. Der grosse schwedische Naturforscher, dessen Name den Beginn der neuzeitlichen Entwicklung unserer Naturkenntniss bezeichnet, hat seit der 1741 erfolgten Begründung der Stockholmer Academie der "Wissenschaften, namentlich während seiner letzten zwanzig Lebens-Jahre (1758— 1778), von seinem europäischen Universitäts- sitze aus in den verschiedensten Theilen der Welt wissenschaftliche Anregung gegeben und an vielen, ein selbstständiges Geistesleben entbehrenden Orten eigene Forschungen hervorgerufen. Vor dem Professor von Upsala hat kein europäischer Gelehrter, selbst nicht ein Pariser oder Londoner, ähnlich weitgehende Einflüsse ausgeübt, weder in den europäischen Ländern von Russland bis Portugal, noch in Asien oder Aegypten, geschweige denn in Amerika. Wie Carl von Linne mit dem Newyorker Gouverneur Cadwallader Colden und seiner Tochter lateinisch correspondirte, wie er der pensylvanischen Gelehrtengesellschaft zu Philadelphia, der ersten amerikanischen Vereinigung ihrer Art, angehörte, so empfing er für seine Studien aus Virginia und Surinam, von den westindischen Inseln und Plätzen des lateinischen Amerika's zahlreiche Beiträge, welche theils für die Ausbildung der wissenschaftlichen Botanik, theils für die Entdeckung von Arzneigewächsen und Zierpflanzen grosse Wichtigkeit erlangt haben. Ein Beispiel, wie vielseitig diese Beziehungen sich gestalteten, bietet ein vom 20. December 1771 -
The Apostles They Risked Their Lives in Distant Lands Linnaeus’S Apostles
The Apostles They Risked their Lives in Distant Lands Linnaeus’s Apostles the wind, billowing sails spread out above your head. The smell of salt is blended with the stench of unwashed bodies. You are standing on the starboard side, gripping the railing tightly with both hands. Your stomach feels rather unruly, one moment it seems to rise up into your throat, the next moment it lands with a sigh on your knees. Time and time again and relentlessly it is forced to follow the movements of the ship. Linnaeus’s farewell rings in your ears: “I avoid long voyages. Now you are on your own. You’ll manage well.” In other words, you are standing alone this time, without your travelling companion. But you have the goal in front of you – to follow one of Linnaeus’s disciples on an adventure far from home in Sweden. A It is 1775. The world is huge and unknown, entic- ing, full of possibilities and new trading contacts – but also tainted with despicable slave-trading and misery. The three-decker Stavenisse which you are aboard is ap- proaching the Japanese port of Nagasaki. The crew are relieved at having survived the dangerous voyage. Its sister ship, the Bleijenburg, was badly damaged in one of the storms but just managed to get to Macao on the south coast of China. Voyages in the 18th century are dangerous in many ways. Apart from storms that tear at the ships, many people on board fall ill from under- nourishment or serious infections that spread like wild- fire among the crew. -

Plate 1lI) NIEUWKOOP 0 B. DE GRAAF MCMLXXY Introduction CAROLUS LINNAEUS AND THE SYSTEMA NATURAE HEN LINNAEUS arrived in Holland in 1735 the Systema Naturae, as here again Wwe present it to the public, was among the many unpublished manuscripts he had taken with him in his 'luggage. His life has been told over and over again, by himself and by others1). From his biographies we learn how Linnaeus became interested in the secrets of nature, how he had a feeling that God Himself led him during his life, permitted him to have a look into His secret council chamber2). He considered the discovery of the p!Ocre ation in plants his most important contribution to botany, as it revealed "the very footprints of the Creator"S). The system of nature was to him the wOIkingplan underlying Creation. That is why he tried. to trace a "Systema Naturae", in botany first, then also in zoology and in mineralogy. It was first announced by him in Hamburgische Berichte von nenen gelehrten Sachen auf das Jahr 1735, nr. 46, 10 Juni, p. 3864). It was the first MS to be printed (after the Doctor's Thesis) in Holland. -
