Carl Linnaeus's botanical paper slips (1767–1773)
This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis Group in Intellectual History Review on 02/06/2014, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/17496977.2014.914643
Lists as Research Technologies
The Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) is famous for having turned botany into a systematic discipline, through his classification systems--most notably the sexual system--and his nomenclature. Throughout his life, Linnaeus experimented with various paper technologies designed to display information synoptically. The list took pride of place among these and is also the common element of more complex representations he produced, such as …
Explorations et voyages scientifiques de l'Antiquite a nos jours
Demeulenaere-Douyère's ambitious collection of essays comprises 27 articles, all presented at the 130th conference of the French national historical and scientific societies, which took place in La Rochelle in 2005. While the inclusion of a handful of essays concerning Antiquity and the early twentieth century justifies the title of the work, the bulk of the volume concentrates on exploration voyages which took place in the eighteenth and ninetee…
Natural history and information overload
Natural History can be seen as a discipline paradigmatically engaged in 'data-driven research.' Historians of early modern science have begun to emphasize its crucial role in the Scientific Revolution, and some observers of present day genomics see it as engaged in a return to natural history practices. A key concept that was developed to understand the dynamics of early modern natural history is that of 'information overload.' Taxonomic systems,…
Carl Linnaeus and the Visual Representation of Nature
The Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) is reputed to have transformed botanical practice by shunning the process of illustrating plants and relying on the primacy of literary descriptions of plant specimens. Botanists and historians have long debated Linnaeus's capacities as a draftsman. While some of his detailed sketches of plants and insects reveal a sure hand, his more general drawings of landscapes and people seem ill-executed. The…

John M. Riddle, Goddesses, Elixirs, and Witches
John Riddle has published extensively on the history of plants and their uses in sexuality, contraception, abortion and fertility throughout the ages. This new volume is written very much in the same vein, but is aimed at a wider public than just historians. Asked, at a course on the history of medicinal plants in a medical school, whether these historical uses of plants actually worked, Riddle reports that: ‘Embarrassed, I replied: historians do…
