The World of Plants in Renaissance Tuscany Medicine and Botany

The World of Plants in Renaissance Tuscany Medicine and Botany

In the sixteenth century medicinal plants which until then had been the monopoly of apothecaries became a major topic of investigation in the medical faculties of Italian universities where they were observed transplanted and grown by learned physicians both in the wild and in the newly founded botanical gardens. Tuscany was one of the main European centres in this new field of inquiry thanks largely to the Medici Grand Dukes who patronised and sustained research and teaching whilst also taking a significant personal interest in plants and medicine. This is the first major reconstruction of this new world of plants in sixteenth-century Tuscany. Focusing primarily on the medical use of plants this book also shows how plants while maintaining their importance in therapy began to be considered and studied for themselves and how this new understanding prepared the groundwork for the science of botany. More broadly this study explores how the New World's flora impacted on existing botanical knowledge and how this led to the first attempts at taxonomy. | The World of Plants in Renaissance Tuscany Medicine and Botany

Urban Agroecology Interdisciplinary Research and Future Directions

Urban Agroecology Interdisciplinary Research and Future Directions

Today 20 percent of the global food supply relies on urban agriculture: social-ecological systems shaped by both human and non-human interactions. This book shows how urban agroecologists measure flora and fauna that underpin the ecological dynamics of these systems and how people manage and benefit from these systems. It explains how the sociopolitical landscape in which these systems are embedded can in turn shape the social ecological political and economic dynamics within them. Synthesizing interdisciplinary approaches in urban agroecology in the natural and social sciences the book explores methodologies and new directions in research that can be adopted by scholars and practitioners alike. With contributions from researchers utilizing both social and natural science approaches Urban Agroecology describes the current social-environmental understandings of the science the movement and the practices in urban agroecology. By investigating the role of agroecology in cities the book calls for the creation of spaces for food to be sustainably grown in urban spaces: an Urban Agriculture (UA) movement. Essential reading for graduate students practitioners policy makers and researchers this book charts the course for accelerating this movement. | Urban Agroecology Interdisciplinary Research and Future Directions

Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space

Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space

In this pioneering study Dr. Fernandez explores how the rise of institutional geography in Victorian England impacted imperial fiction’s emergence as a genre characterized by a preoccupation with space and place. This volume argues that the alliance between institutional geography and the British empire which commenced with the founding of the Royal Geographical Society in 1830 shaped the spatial imagination of Victorians with profound consequences for the novel of empire. Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire examines Presidential Addresses and reports of the Royal Geographical Society and demonstrates how geographical studies by explorers cartographers ethnologists medical topographers administrators and missionaries published by the RGS local geographical societies or the colonial state acquired relevance for Victorian fiction’s response to the British Empire. Through a series of illuminating readings of literary works by R. L. Stevenson Olive Schreiner Flora Annie Steel Winwood Reade Joseph Conrad and Rudyard Kipling the study demonstrates how nineteenth-century fiction published between 1870 and 1901 reflected and interrogated geographical discourses of the time. The study makes the case for the significance of physical and human geography for literary studies and the unique historical and aesthetic insights gained through this approach. | Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space

Sponsoring Nature Environmental Philanthropy for Conservation

Sponsoring Nature Environmental Philanthropy for Conservation

Saving the world's flora and fauna especially high-profile examples such as chimpanzees whales and the tropical rain forests is big business. Individuals and companies channel their resources to the preservation of nature through various ways one of which is the funding of environmental non-governmental organizations (ENGOs) and community-based organizations (CBOs). This book is the first to comprehensively address this issue and focus on a dominant theme in environmental philanthropy the links between ENGOs and CBOs and their sponsors especially the private sector. It has been argued that donor support is based on recipient's perceived expertise and needs with no favouritism of flagship environmental organizations as recipients of donor funds. A counterview holds that the private sector prefers to fund mainstream ENGOs for environmental research and policy reforms congenial to industrial capital. The authors show that the debate about these arguments together with the empirical evidence on which they are based may shed light on certain aspects of the nature of environmental philanthropy. The book evaluates practical examples of environmental philanthropy from Africa and elsewhere against philosophical questions about the material and geographical expressions of philanthropy and the North-South connections among philanthropists and ENGOs and CBOs. | Sponsoring Nature Environmental Philanthropy for Conservation

Touch Sexuality and Hands in British Literature 1740–1901

Touch Sexuality and Hands in British Literature 1740–1901

From Robert Lovelace’s uninvited hand-grasps in Samuel Richardson’s Clarissa to to Basil Hallward’s first encounter with Dorian Gray literary depictions of touching hands in British literature from the 1740s to the 1890s communicate emotional dimensions of sexual experience that reflect shifting cultural norms associated with gender roles sexuality​ and sexual expression. But what is the relationship between hands tactility and sexuality in Victorian literature? And how do we best interpret ​what those touches communicate between characters? This volume addresses these questions by asserting a connection between the prevalence of violent sexually charged touches in eighteenth-century novels such as those by Eliza Haywood Samuel Richardson and Frances Burney and growing public concern over handshake etiquette in the nineteenth century evident in works by ​Jane Austen the Brontës George Eliot Elizabeth Gaskell Thomas Hardy Oscar Wilde and Flora Annie Steel. This book takes an interdisciplinary approach that combines literary analysis with close analyses of paintings musical compositions and nonfictional texts​ such as etiquette books and scientific treatises​ to make a case for the significance of tactility to eighteenth- and nineteenth-century perceptions of selfhood and sexuality. In doing so it draws attention to the communicative nature of skin-to-skin contact ​as represented in literature and traces a trajectory of meaning from the forceful grips that violate female characters in eighteenth-century novels to the consensual embraces common in Victorian ​and neo-Victorian literature. | Touch Sexuality and Hands in British Literature 1740–1901

A Handbook of Global Freshwater Invasive Species

A Handbook of Global Freshwater Invasive Species

Invasive non-native species are a major threat to global biodiversity. Often introduced accidentally through international travel or trade they invade and colonize new habitats often with devastating consequences for the local flora and fauna. Their environmental impacts can range from damage to resource production (e. g. agriculture and forestry) and infrastructure (e. g. buildings road and water supply) to human health. They consequently can have major economic impacts. It is a priority to prevent their introduction and spread as well as to control them. Freshwater ecosystems are particularly at risk from invasions and are landscape corridors that facilitate the spread of invasives. This book reviews the current state of knowledge of the most notable global invasive freshwater species or groups based on their severity of economic impact geographic distribution outside of their native range extent of research and recognition of the ecological severity of the impact of the species by the IUCN. As well as some of the very well-known species the book also covers some invasives that are emerging as serious threats. Examples covered include a range of aquatic and riparian plants insects molluscs crustacea fish amphibians reptiles and mammals as well as some major pathogens of aquatic organisms. The book also includes overview chapters synthesizing the ecological impact of invasive species in fresh water and summarizing practical implications for the management of rivers and other freshwater habitats. | A Handbook of Global Freshwater Invasive Species

Japan's Withdrawal from International Whaling Regulation

Japan's Withdrawal from International Whaling Regulation

This book examines the impact and implications of Japan’s withdrawal from the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling (ICRW) which came into effect in July 2019. In 1982 the International Whaling Commission (IWC) adopted a moratorium on commercial whaling which has been in effect ever since despite the resistance of some countries first and foremost Japan Norway and Iceland that engage in commercial whaling. As one of the key contributors to scientific research and funding Japan’s withdrawal has the potential to have wide-ranging implications and this volume examines the impact of Japan’s withdrawal on the IWC itself on the governance of whaling and on indigenous and coastal whaling. It provides backgrounds and commentaries on this decision as well as normative and legal discussions on matters relating to sustainable use of resources and philosophies surrounding whaling in different IWC countries. The consideration of other international environmental regimes such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) is also examined in order to determine the international ripple effect of Japan’s decision. The book reveals that this is not just a matter of whaling but one which has significant legal managerial and cultural implications. Drawing on deep analyses of IWC structures the book addresses core philosophies underlying the whaling debate and in how far these may influence environmental governance in the future. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental law and governance biodiversity conservation and sustainable development as well as policymakers involved in international environmental and conservation agreements. | Japan's Withdrawal from International Whaling Regulation
