Flora's Lexicon, An Interpretation Of The Language And Sentiment Of Flowers: With An Outline Of Botany, And A Poetical Introduction (1855) - Tapa blanda
Sinopsis
Flora's Lexicon is a book written by Catharine H. Waterman in 1855. The book is an interpretation of the language and sentiment of flowers, which was a popular concept during the Victorian era. The author provides an outline of botany, which is the study of plants, and a poetically written introduction. The book is essentially a guide to understanding the meanings behind different flowers and their symbolism. Each flower is given a description of its characteristics and symbolic meaning, which can be used to express emotions and sentiments in a subtle way. The book is a fascinating insight into the language of flowers and the Victorian era, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of botany, symbolism, and language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Els LANDSCAPE ARCH. LIBRARY ADVERTISEMENT. THE language of flowers has recently attracted so much attention, that an acquaintance with it seems to be deemed, if not an essential part of a polite education, at least a graceful and elegant accomplishment. A volume furnishing a complete interpretation of those meanings most generally attached to flowers, has therefore become a desirable, if not an essential part of a gentlemans or a ladys library. In the manual now offered to the public, an attempt has been made to comprise all that is important in the way of interpretation in a reasonable compass, and to adorn this part of the work with such quotations from the best poets of our language, both native and foreign, as have a direct and graceful reference either to the peculiarities of the flowers, or to the sentiments which they are made to express. The outline of Botany placed at the end of the volume will be found to contain a sufficiently clear exposition of theL innean system to explain fully the scientific terms and the classification used in the body of the work.
