Excerpt from The Names of Herbes It is unnecessary to enter into any account of the life and works of William Turner, as a full account of both will be found. In Mr. B. D. Jackson's preface to his reprint (issued in 1877) of the Libellus - Turner's first work - as well as in Trimen and Dyer's Flora of Middlesex (published in pp. 364 - 369. He was born at Morpeth in Northumberland between 1510 and 1515, went to Pembroke Hall, Cambridge, and became Fellow of that College in 1531. He afterwards took up the religious views which were then becoming prominent, and went through a series of vicissitudes which are duly chronicled by Mr. Jackson. He was a prolific writer, many of his works being directed against the Catholic Church, and ex hibiting the heated controversial tone characteristic of the period in which he lived. Like many other controversialists, he was not always very particular as to the acorn-soy of his accusations - an example of this will be found in the note upon Palm in the Dictionary of English plant-james. He died in 1568. I may perhaps be allowed to draw attention to the fact that the house of Syon, where the Names of Herbes was prepared, is within a mile of the place where this Preface is written; and that the Protestant author of 1548 is introduced to the reading public by a Catholic editor in 1882. Thus the whirligig of Time brings in his revenges. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download Britain's Wild Flowers Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A fascinating look at the myths, folklore and botany behind over 70 British wildflowers. From hedgerows to meadows, wildflowers can be found throughout our green and pleasant land. In this book, journalist and garden writer Rosamond Richardson traces the history and myths behind each flower to discover the fascinating ways in which the plants were used. Discover which flower used as a medieval lie-detector to test the innocence of suspected criminals, or stuffed in the shoes of Roman centurions to prevent damage to their feet as they marched. From periwinkles, beloved of Chaucer, and the oxlips and ‘nodding violet’ growing in the forest of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the book celebrates the important role wildflowers have played in literature, as well as their uses in food and medicine, and the history, myths and tales behind each species. The nineteenth-century poet John Clare wrote, ‘I love wildflowers (none are weeds with me)'. This book is a celebration of the bountiful history behind Britain’s beloved wildflowers and is perfect for anyone with an interest in gardening, history or the natural world.

Download William Turner: A New Herball Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A New Herball, originally published in three parts during the second half of the sixteenth century, was the first English herbal with any pretensions to scientific status. As such, it provided a landmark in the history of botany and herbalism, breaking new ground in its accuracy of observation and its scientific thoroughness. For the first time since its original publication, the entire Herball is now available in a facsimile edition which faithfully reproduces the beautiful sixteenth-century black-letter text and woodcut illustrations. To aid the twentieth-century reader, a modernised transcript, together with keyed-in notes, a glossary of unfamiliar terms and comprehensive indexes have been provided. Biographical information on this influential physician, naturalist and cleric is also included to give an indication of his contribution to sixteenth-century English history.
