Letters on the Elements of Botany
Letters on the Elements of Botany ((フランス語:Lettres Elementaires Sur La Botanique)) is a work comprising a series of letters written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau on the subject of botany. They were addressed to Mme Delessert in Lyon with the objective of helping her daughters learn botany. They were subsequently translated into english by Thomas Martyn, a professor of botany at Cambridge University, who added notes and corrections to the text. Martyn's translation was originally published in 1785.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cambridge.org/us/academic/subjects/life-sciences/botanical-reference/letters-elements-botany-addressed-lady )
==Content and Reception==
The letters elucidate the structure of plants and give their order in the Linnaean system.〔Rousseau avoided using Latin names so as to make the scientific content in his letters more accessible. The girls's tutor, Pierre Prévost, was highly appreciative of the letters, and commented: "Never has a botanist carried so far the delicacy and correctness with which he arranged the plants on paper...His book of mosses, in duodecimo format, was a little masterpiece of elegance."The letters remained unpublished at Rousseau's death; when they were finally published they received widespread acclaim. "It's a true pedagogical model, and it complements ''Emile''," commented Goethe.〔According to Martyn, the letters were not meant for reading while sitting in an easy chair; rather they were directed at readers with a plant in their hand.〔
