Scientific Archives in the Age of Digitization
Historians are increasingly working with material that is not only digital but has been digitized. Early digitization projects aimed to encode data for systematic analysis; more recent projects have sought to reproduce unique archival material in a manner that allows for open-ended historical inquiry without the need to travel to archives and manipulate physical objects. Such projects have undeniable benefits for the preservation of documents and…

Attending to insects
Francis Willughby and John Ray were at the forefront of the natural history of insects in the second half of the seventeenth century. Willughby in particular had a deep interest in insects' metamorphosis, behaviour and diversity, an interest that he passed on to his friend and mentor Ray. By examining Willughby's contributions to John Wilkins's Essay towards a Real Character (1668) and Ray's Methodus insectorum (1705) and Historia insectorum (171…

Image and Text in Natural History, 1500–1700
The sixteenth century witnessed an explosion of natural history images. From the publication of the Herbarum vivae eicones in 1532 to that of Carolus Clusius’ Rariorum plantarum historia in 1601, European presses churned out thousands of copies of hundreds of illustrated botanical books. While fewer zoological titles flowed from the presses, they too were lavishly illustrated. The Renaissance naturalists who wrote these books had at their disposa…
The Many Books of Nature
Early Renaissance naturalists worked to identify the plans described in ancient sources. But during the middle decades of the sixteenth century, naturalists instead began to describe and name plans unknown to the ancients. They also divided nature much more finely, distinguishing species that their predecessors had lumped together. As a result, they created an information overload. Dictionaries of synonyms and local flora were invented in the ear…
