Herbs and Herbalism in the Middle Ages and Renaissance de Jerry Stannard

Herbs and Herbalism in the Middle Ages and Renaissance: Variorum Collected Studies

Jerry Stannard

Katherine E. Stannard

Jerry Stannard assembled a legendary collection of materials on the history of botany from Homer to Linnaeus, and his mastery of the field was acknowledged as incomparable. However, his work was sadly cut short by his death, and so did not result in the ultimate synthesis he envisioned; this volume, and its companion, Pristina Medicamenta, bring together his important output in articles and studies.

Recenzii

'Ashgate Publishing managed to reproduce the rather difficult originals flawlessly, which hardly ever forces the reader to use a magnifying glass...We have to thank the editors and the publisher for making such groundbreaking and fundamental work by one of the most important scholars in this field easily accessible. Jerry Stannard's literary knowledge is stupendous and was and still is legendary.' Sudhoffs Archiv, Band 84, Heft 2 (2000) '...a fitting tribute to a gentleman and a scholar whose expectations of his readers are high.' Pharmacy in History 'Jerry Stannard's knowledge of the literature is stupendous and even in his lifetime he was legendary.' Translated from Sudhoffs Archiv
