The age of wonder : how the Romantic generation discovered the beauty and terror of science /Richard Holmes. Described as a 'relay race of scientific stories' Richard Holmes has captured the inner lives of the men and women of science at the turn of the nineteenth century. The book proposes a radical vision of science before Darwin, exploring the earliest ideas of deep time and space, and the startling impact of discovery on great writers and poets such as Mary Shelley, Coleridge, Byron and Keats. Beginning with the botanist Joseph Banks who joined Captain Cook on his first Endeavour voyage in search of new worlds, other voyages of discovery - astronomical, chemical, poetical, philosophical swiftly follow. Two scientific lives dominate the book: that of William Herschel and Humphry Davy, in this extraordinary evocation of the Romantic age. 2008. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 5(091):7.035
Picturing the Pacific : Joseph Banks and the shipboard artists of Cook and Flinders /James Taylor "For over 50 years between the 1760s and the early 19th century, the pioneers who sailed from Europe to explore the Pacific brought back glimpses of this new world in the form of oil paintings, watercolours and drawings - a sensational view of a part of the world few would ever see. Today these works represent a fascinating and inspiring perspective from the frontier of discovery. It was Sir Joseph Banks, President of the Royal Society, who popularised the placement of professional artists on British ships of exploration. They captured striking and memorable images of everything they encountered: exotic landscapes, beautiful flora and fauna, as well as remarkable portraits of indigenous peoples. These earliest views of the Pacific, particularly Australia, were designed to promote the new world as enticing, to make it seem familiar, to encourage further exploration and, ultimately, British settlement. Drawing on both private and public collections from around the world, this lavish book collects together oil paintings, watercolours, drawings, prints and other documents from those voyages, and presents a unique glimpse into an age where science and art became irrevocably entwined."--Provided by the publisher. 2018. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 7:910.4(265/266)
