- W2561491719 abstract "On the passport the Spanish government issued him before he set off for Americain June 1799, Alexander von Humboldt had asked that the name of the botanistwho accompanied him – ‘mon ami (secretaire) A. Goujau-Bonpland’ – be written down, as well as a special mention of the equipment he was taking on board,referring to the extraordinary array of portable ‘instruments de physique etd’astronomie’ he had assembled – barometers, thermometers, hygrometers,electrometers, compasses, dipping needles, magnetic needles, microscopes, timekeepers, etc.1 In themselves, those few words sounded like the announcement ofa programme: completing the catalogue of nature through the discovery of newbotanical species, on the one hand, and understanding the face of nature throughthe observation of plant geography and the making of multiple measurements, onthe other. Both were to be part and parcel of the scientific travellers’ endeavour(Figure 5.1)." @default.
