The Botanic Garden by Erasmus Darwin (eBook, ePUB)

Volume I

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The career of Erasmus Darwin affords an extraordinary glimpse into the intellectual ferment of late-eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century Britain. His magnum opus, and the synthesis of his myriad interests, is The Botanic Garden - an epic poem that aims to "enlist the Imagination under the banner of Science." Despite a recent surge of academic interest in Darwin, however, no authoritative critical edition of The Botanic Garden has yet been made available. This first of two volumes comprises a complete reading text of part I, The Economy of Vegetation, along with extensive commentary that situates Darwin within the context of several key contemporary debates and detailed textual apparatus.
