Yet we know surprisingly little about the practical work that produced the vast inventory we have to date of our fellow creatures. How were these multitudinous creatures collected, recorded, and named? When, and by whom? Here a distinguished historian of science tells the story of the modern discovery of biodiversity. Robert Kohler argues that the work begun by Linnaeus culminated around 1900, when collecting and inventory were organized on a grand scale in natural history surveys. Supported by governments, museums, and universities, biologists launched hundreds of collecting expeditions to every corner of the world. Kohler conveys to readers the experience and feel of expeditionary travel: the customs and rhythms of collectors' daily work, and its special pleasures and pains. A novel twist in this story is that survey collecting was rooted not just in science but also in new customs of outdoor recreation, such as hiking, camping, and sport hunting. These popular pursuits engendered a wide scientific interest in animals and plants and inspired wealthy nature-goers to pay for expeditions. The modern discovery of biodiversity became a reality when scientists' desire to know intersected with the culture of outdoor vacationing. General readers as well as scholars will find this book fascinating. 606 $aNatural history$xHistory 606 $aBiological specimens$xCollectors and collecting$xHistory 615 0$aNatural history$xHistory. 615 0$aBiological specimens$xCollectors and collecting$xHistory. 676 $a508 686 $aTB 2380$2rvk 700 $aKohler$b Robert E$0625477 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790628903321 996 $aAll creatures$91220764 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03575nam 2200589 450 001 9910789681103321 005 20230421053735.0 010 $a1-283-19530-5 010 $a9786613195302 010 $a0-567-23155-0 035 $a(CKB)2670000000106552 035 $a(EBL)742561 035 $a(OCoLC)741687260 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000522575 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11355422 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000522575 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10528495 035 $a(PQKB)10052703 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC742561 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL742561 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10869547 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL319530 035 $a(OCoLC)893335554 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000106552 100 $a20140519h19941994 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 02$aA feminist companion to Samuel and Kings /$fedited by Athalya Brenner 210 1$aSheffield, England :$cSheffield Academic Press,$d[1994] 210 4$dİ1994 215 $a1 online resource (287 p.) 225 1 $aThe feminist companion to the Bible ;$v5 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-85075-480-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aContents; Abbreviations; Introduction; Part I: WOMEN AS VEHICLES FOR HISTORIOGRAPHY: LIMINALITY AND ANONYMITY; Living on the Edge: The Liminality of Daughters in Genesis to 2 Samuel; Anonymous Women and the Collapse of the Monarchy: A Study in Narrative Technique; Part II: A MODEL MOTHER: HANNAH; 'Am I Not More Devoted To You Than Ten Sons?'

Although gender ideology may have been only a 'side issue' for the writers of these texts, the articles in this collection show that it is definitely a constituent of the general ideological framework of this section of Israel's historiography, and they explore the texts for women's lives, female voices, gendered types, and the presence of women in the written history.
