Summary |
This book is composed of a series of letters written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau to his cousin's daughter. They introduce both the elements of botany and the beauty of this specific study. Historically, the study of botany was used primarily for medicinal purposes, but these letters are infused with a sense of joy in the meticulous description of hyacinths, tulips, narcissus, jonquils and lilies of the valley, to name only a very few. ℓ |
