"This facsimile of one of the most beautiful books of natural history ever created contains sixty magnificent illustrations showing exotic insects, with the original descriptions. The reissue is the same size as the original and is enriched with an illustrated introduction about the life, work and significance of Maria Sibylla Merian, and a new scientific description of all the insects, animals and plants. The life and work of this German woman who moved to the Netherlands has been the subject of international research by botanists, entomologists and historians concerned with the history of science, art, religion and economics. Her original works have been preserved in archives and museums all over the world, from Saint-Petersburg to New York, and have been the subject of countless publications, exhibitions and novels." (from the publisher's description) The book features a foreword by Merian specialist Redmond O'Hanlon and a biographical introduction by art historian Dr. Ella Reitsman. Dr. Kay Etheridge, Professor of Biology at Gettysburg College, delves into the significance of Merian's work for biology, while Dr. Bert van de Roemer provides insights into the historical context.

Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Overall fine condition. First edition thus. Maria Sibylla Merian [1647 - 1717] was a German entomologist and scientific illustrator. 'She was one of the earliest European naturalists to document observations about insects directly.' (wikipedia dot com) Her lifelong study of insects and incorporation of the various stages of insect development into her illustrations established that insects had life cycles and dislodged the early idea that bugs were created from spontaneous generation. This magnificent facsimile is taken from the original collection at the Koninklijke Bibliotheek in The Hague. The 60 magnificent illustrations showing exotic insects, in their habitat with the original descriptions. The reissue is the same size as the original, published in 1705. Folio, 200pp, illustrated boards, in the publisher's slipcase. Fine in slipcase with bump on front corner.

Libro
Condizione: NEW. 200, col illus. . HB. NEW. . Facsimile of this masterpiece by Maria Sibylla Merian, one of the greatest female scientists and artists of the 17th century.Metamorphosis Insectorum Surinamensium (published in 1705) was the work of a very enterprising and independent woman, Maria Sibylla Merian. In 1699 she traveled specifically to Suriname to do research into the reproduction and metamorphis of insects. Today she is regarded as a highly gifted artist, and also an empirical scientist, who was one of the first to dismiss the common notion of spontaneous generation of insects to the realm of fiction. This facsimile is preceded by several essays in Dutch and English on the life of Maria Sibylla Merian, covering her entire body of work and her time. The original texts are translated into English at the rear of the book. Includes an index of plant, animal and insect names. [9789401433785].
