Provenance: with the bookplate of the Warren H. Corning Collection of Horticultural Classics on the front paste-down. First French edition of Johann Andreas Murray's 13th edition of Linnaeus' "Systema naturae", first published by Murray in 1774. A student of Linneaus in Uppsala between 1756 and 1759, he wrote an introduction called "Regnum vegetabile" [or, 'The Vegetable Kingdom']. First published in Leiden in 1735, the first edition of "Systema naturae" had only twelve pages, and with each new edition new plant and animal species were added. The 13th edition was published in 1770 and more than 2000 pages. The work presented a revolutionary way to classify the three kingdoms in nature: the animal, the plant, and stones. Each kingdom was subdivided into classes, orders, genera, species, and varieties. Linnaeus's classification system has survived in biology, though additional ranks, such as families, have been added to accommodate growing numbers of species. Linnaeus, the celebrated Swedish naturalist and explorer, was the first scientist to propose principles for defining the genera and species of organisms and to create a uniform system for naming them: binomial nomenclature. His system was so successful that it is still used today for naming new species of plants and animals.…

Catalog clipping, ink stamp of the Gloucestershire County Library completed in manuscript "580 / a / H 4 F12", bookplate of Gloucestershire's The Hartland Library, and manuscript bibliographical notes to the verso of a tipped in ink letter from a Mrs. Griffiths to a Mr. Hastley to the front pastedown. Carl Linné (von Linné from his ennoblement in 1761; Latinized Carolus Linnæus, 1707-1778) was the ultimate taxonomist, the father of modern natural science, princeps botanicorum (prince of botanists). Against a national patchwork of descriptions of living things -- often but not always in Latin, and usually in full sentences describing the qualities of the creature -- Linnaeus perfected the system of binomial nomenclature. With two Latin words, scientists could communicate internationally and be assured that they were referring to the same creature; this allowed the collaboration and rapid development that made the XVIIIc the greatest in the development of biological knowledge. The present work is Linnaeus's first published account of plants from around the world, demonstrating that they all could be described using the system he laid out in his twelve-page Systema naturæ (1735). The work is based on the botanical holdings of George Clifford III (1685-1760), an Anglo-Dutch banker who had risen to a directorship of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). His summer estate at Hartekamp benefitted from his global connections, and his gardens came to include four hothouses to cultivate his exotic specimens -- per the title, both living and dried -- including the first banana tree grown indoors. Clifford brought on the young naturalist to apply the binomial system to his holdings. The work is important (the Hunt catalogue calls it "the central volume in botanical literature") not only for being the first widespread application of the system to plants but also for being so richly illustrated with engravings by Jan Wandelaar (1690-1759), including a richly allegorical frontispiece: Apollo (with, it is said, the face of Linnaeus) casting off the veil of ignorance from Mother Earth. Twenty of the thirty-six engravings are after the greatest of all XVIIIc botanical illustrators: Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708-1770). W.T. Stearn, the great XXc botanist, claims that the Hortus Cliffortianus "marks the beginning of a new era in botanical illustration and foreshadows the golden century of great flower-book production which extended from about 1760-1860" (apud Hunt). The present example hails from the collection of Ernest Dixon Hartland (d. 1931) given to Gloucestershire County Library in 1936 by his widow, Mrs. Amy Georgina Hartland of Hardwicke Court, Chepstow. Mr. Hartland held membership at London's Society of Antiquaries and acted as an independent archivist for his region, collecting not only rare books but manuscript material and ephemera relating to the legal, governmental, and diplomatic proceedings of England's seven home counties. Though much of Mr. Hartland's collection has been deaccessioned, Gloucestershire Archives maintains many of the municipal documents for public reference.
