Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hortus Cantabrigiensis, or a Catalogue of Plants, Indigenous and Exotic: Cultivated in the Botanic Garden, Cambridge All the Copies of the first impression of the Harms Cantabrigiensis being sold, and the number of Species of Plants in cultivation having been very considerably increased since the publication of it-ia the year 1796, the Curator thankfully avails himself of the kind indul gence of the Syndics of the University Press, and offers to the public this present Edition. It was his intention, in the course of the work, to have referred the Botanical Student to the best Engraved Figures of Plants that have, at various times, been published; but his plan requiring that his book should be so small as to be portable without inconvenience, this was found to be altogether impracticable.

The book comprises a number of general essays, exploring and challenging common perceptions about such species, and a series of case studies of specific species in specific contexts.

Download or read book The Apotheosis of Captain Cook written by Gananath Obeyesekere and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here Gananath Obeyesekere debunks one of the most enduring myths of imperialism, civilization, and conquest: the notion that the Western civilizer is a god to savages. Using shipboard journals and logs kept by Captain James Cook and his officers, Obeyesekere reveals the captain as both the self-conscious civilizer and as the person who, his mission gone awry, becomes a "savage" himself. In this new edition of The Apotheosis of Captain Cook, the author addresses, in a lengthy afterword, Marshall Sahlins's 1994 book, How "Natives" Think, which was a direct response to this work.

Download or read book The Problem of Nature written by David Arnold and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1996-09-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers how nature - in both its biological and environmental manifestations - has been invoked as a dynamic force in human history. It shows how historians, philosophers, geographers, anthropologists and scientists have used ideas of nature to explain the evolution of cultures, to understand cultural difference, and to justify or condemn colonization, slavery and racial superiority. It examines the central part that ideas of environmental and biological determinism have played in theory, and describes how these ideas have served in different ways at different times as instruments of authority, identity and defiance. The book shows how powerful and problematic the invocation of nature can be.
