Название: The Herbalist's Bible: John Parkinson's Lost Classic Rediscovered Автор: Julie Bruton-Seal, Matthew Seal Издательство: Skyhorse Год: 2019 Формат: EPUB Размер: 46 Мб Язык: английский / English
A lost classic of Western herbalism-rediscovered and restored with 200 full-color images. Herbalist to King Charles I, John Parkinson (1567-1650) was a master apothecary, herbalist, and gardener. Famous in his own lifetime for his influential books, his magnum opus, the Theatrum Botanicum, was published in 1640 and ran to 1,766 large pages. The sheer scope and size was perhaps to prove the book's downfall, because while it was much revered-and plagiarized-it was never reprinted and, centuries later, has attained the status of an extremely rare and valuable book. Parkinson was writing at a time when Western herbalism was at its zenith, and his skills as a gardener (from his grounds in Covent Garden) combined perfectly with his passion for science, observation, and historical scholarship.
