具體描述

ANDREA WULF was born in India and moved to Germany as a child. She lives in London, where she trained as a design historian at the Royal College of Art. She is the author of Chasing Venus, Founding Gardeners, and The Brother Gardeners, which was long-listed for the Samuel Johnson Prize and awarded the American Horticultural Society Book Award. She has written for The New York Times, the Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, and the Los Angeles Times. She appears regularly on radio and TV, and in 2014 copresented British Gardens in Time, a four-part series on BBC television.

The acclaimed author of Founding Gardeners reveals the forgotten life of Alexander von Humboldt, the visionary German naturalist whose ideas changed the way we see the natural world—and in the process created modern environmentalism.

Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) was an intrepid explorer and the most famous scientist of his age. In North America, his name still graces four counties, thirteen towns, a river, parks, bays, lakes, and mountains. His restless life was packed with adventure and discovery, whether he was climbing the highest volcanoes in the world or racing through anthrax-infected Siberia or translating his research into bestselling publications that changed science and thinking. Among Humboldt’s most revolutionary ideas was a radical vision of nature, that it is a complex and interconnected global force that does not exist for the use of humankind alone.

Now Andrea Wulf brings the man and his achievements back into focus: his daring expeditions and investigation of wild environments around the world and his discoveries of similarities between climate and vegetation zones on different continents. She also discusses his prediction of human-induced climate change, his remarkable ability to fashion poetic narrative out of scientific observation, and his relationships with iconic figures such as Simón Bolívar and Thomas Jefferson. Wulf examines how Humboldt’s writings inspired other naturalists and poets such as Darwin, Wordsworth, and Goethe, and she makes the compelling case that it was Humboldt’s influence that led John Muir to his ideas of natural preservation and that shaped Thoreau’s Walden.

With this brilliantly researched and compellingly written book, Andrea Wulf shows the myriad fundamental ways in which Humboldt created our understanding of the natural world, and she champions a renewed interest in this vital and lost player in environmental history and science.

##像講某個人的故事,串起來,看不下去 文/寶木笑 “那麼多種聲音都在告訴我們,自然中的一切都在呼吸。” ——亞曆山大•馮•洪堡 上麵的話是剛過而立之年的亞曆山大•馮•洪堡在南美洲的雨林中寫下的,那段時間他和他的夥伴險象環生,睡覺時會有蛇盤踞在墊子下麵,也許還有美洲豹毛茸茸的利爪慢慢伸來,搜...

##洪堡的傳記幫助我們瞭解為什麼他曾被稱為大洪水後最偉大的人物,為什麼在19世紀初的歐洲他是僅次於拿破侖最有影響力的人。他改變瞭歐洲看待自然的觀念,深深影響瞭後代的人們觀察研究自然的方式。這是一次“理解我們今天為何如此思考自然的旅程”。

書名小識 不像哥倫布或牛頓,洪堡沒有發現一片新大陸或物理學上的新定律。他不是以某一項事實或發現著稱的,而是以他的世界觀;他的自然之觀點已經滲透到瞭我們每個人的意識之中。 不像從小就知道大仲馬和小仲馬的區彆,在沒有讀本書之前,我一直以為洪堡是一位地理學傢兼語言...

##12.5-12| more than a biography or what a biography should be like with TR and national parks introduced at the end of the book the lives of these beautiful men of nature are tied together accounts of vulnerability in biographies are especially touching reading of noble human beings leaves a cynical reader in serious inner conflict
