LINNAEUS Cronologia (1707 - 1778)    di -Alberto Masi

Carolus Linnaeus

Linnaeus, dalla parola svedese Lind,  nel dialetto dello Småland “linn”,  deriva dal latino Tilia. Indica un albero secolare
di Tiglio (Tilia cordata Miller) che trovavasi a Jonsboda in un terreno di proprietà di Ingemar Bengtsson, nonno di Linneo.
In origine il nome adottato fu Lindelius o Tiliander, in seguito trasformato in Linnaeus. I parenti di Linneo optarono per il
nome Tiliander, alla svedese.
-
Linnaeus stesso riferisce quanto sopra nel 1745 nella descrizione della Tilia come vastissima in pago Stegaryd
Sunnerboae Smolandiae unde Tiliandri et Linnaei dicti .

* La Svezia fino al 1752 adottava il Calendario Giuliano in ritardo di 10 giorni.

Joseph Pitton de Tournefort 1694-1695--
"Elements of botany or methodology by which to know about plants"
[Possession of Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, Kyoto University]
-
In this work, Joseph Pitton de Tournefort (1656-1708), also known as "the Father of French Botany", classifies
plants according to the shape of the flower into 22 "classes," and then further into "sections" and "genres"
according to the shape of fruit, seed, and so on. Without any value judgments as to their utility or otherwise to humankind, Tournefort classified purely on the basis of the character of plants and established the outline of
genuses.
