Natural History and Its Transformations in Early Modern China
Omschrijving
In the first book-length study in English of the Bencao gangmu (Systematic materia medica) of Li Shizhen (1518–1593), Nappi reveals a “cabinet of curiosities” of gems, beasts, and oddities whose author was devoted to using natural history to guide the application of natural and artificial objects as medical drugs.
Ik heb een vraag over het boek: ‘The Monkey and the Inkpot - Nappi, Carla’.
