在自然世界的多样性和我们在文学,图像和博物馆中遇到的编辑形式之间,存在着博物学家在选择,记录和保存标本方面的多种实践,这些标本将重构我们的世界观。本书对每个阶段的重要因素进行了剖析和分析,并将其置于跨越五个多世纪的历史叙事中。在那个时代,随着与自然的接触从受古典学术严重影响的思辨追求转变为借鉴先进理论和技术的系统科学,各个方面都发生了变化。表现自然的过程远非中立客观,而是充满了约束和妥协。撰稿人有:玛丽·阿迪曼、彼得·巴纳德、保罗·d·布林克曼、伊恩·康韦里、彼得·戴维斯、费利克斯·德莱弗、弗洛里克·埃格蒙德、安妮玛丽·乔丹·格施文德、杰夫·汉考克、斯蒂芬·哈里斯、汉娜·霍达克斯、斯图尔特·休斯顿、多米尼克·休尼格、罗布·赫胥利、查理·贾维斯、马尔戈西亚·诺瓦克-肯普、谢泼德·克雷奇三世、马克·劳利、亚瑟·卢卡斯、马尔科·马塞蒂、杰夫·摩尔、帕特·莫里斯、查尔斯·纳尔逊、罗伯特·派克、海伦·斯卡尔斯、汉·f·维默伦和格林·威廉姆斯。
Interposed between the natural world in all its diversity and the edited form in which we encounter it in literature, imagery and the museum, lie the multiple practices of the naturalists in selecting, recording and preserving the specimens from which our world view is to be reconstituted. The factors that weigh at every stage are here dissected, analysed and set within a historical narrative that spans more than five centuries. During that era, every aspect evolved and changed, as engagement with nature moved from a speculative pursuit heavily influenced by classical scholarship to a systematic science, drawing on advanced theory and technology. Far from being neutrally objective, the process of representing nature is shown as fraught with constraint and compromise.
