  • 晚清中國北方考察錄

    Three Years' Wanderings in the Northern Provinces of China

    本書詳實記錄了植物學家羅伯特・福鈞於十九世紀中葉深入中國北方省份的漫遊見聞。作者以科學家的精準視角,將考察範圍擴及當時西方世界極少涉足的內陸區域,針對當地的氣候特徵、農作物分布、園藝手法以及民眾生活樣態,進行了系統性的觀察與敘述。書中不僅呈現了當時中國北方的地理圖景,更深刻記錄了工業革命時期,西方對東方植物資源的探索與蒐集過程。本書文字平和內斂,不帶過多主觀評斷,是了解十九世紀中國社會變遷與植物學交流史的重要文本,適合對十九世紀地誌學、東亞近代史以及園藝歷史感興趣的讀者閱讀。 ... Leer más
