The article is dedicated to a review of the literary and personal communication of Soviet nature writers in the 1960s and 1980s. V. Bianki was the inspirer and literary teacher of this writing community, and his students were Leningrad authors who wrote about nature. V. Bianki referred to N. Sladkov as his heir in literature. The correspondence between N. Sladkov and the Kazakh naturalist writer M. Zverev provides material for the analysis of the artistic and philosophical attitudes of the authors who ranked themselves among the literary school of V. Bianki and also allows to understand not on

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper examines how communities of naturalists in mid-nineteenth-century Britain were formed and solidified around the shared practices of public meetings, the publication and reading of periodicals, and the making and printing of images. By focusing on communities of naturalists and the sites of their communication, this article undermines the distinction between amateur and professional scientific practice. Building on the notion of imagined communities, this paper also shows that in some cases the editors and illustrators utilized imagery to construct a specifically British natu

Abstract:
During the rise of professional biology in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, individual naturalists continued to develop private collections by modest means and often within their own homes. Despite the increasing opportunities for women to participate in the sciences, the number of women entomologists remained relatively few. The amateur entomological career of Alice Blanche Balfour, the younger sister of Arthur James Balfour, first Earl of Balfour, reveals how a confluence of personal and social factors shaped a gentlewoman's capacity to pursue her interests in natural history

Władysław Emanuel Lubomirski (1824–1882) was a Polish amateur naturalist who amassed a large collection of molluscs; this included specimens, partly collected by Konstanty Roman Jelski (1837–1896) and Jan Stanisław Sztolcman (Stolzmann) (1854–1928) in the Neotropics. Jelski travelled through French Guiana and Peru between 1865 and 1879. Sztolcman joined him in 1875 and worked in Peru and Ecuador until 1881.

Turtles are one of nature’s most immediately recognizable life forms. They are an ancient group of vertebrateswith a rich fossil history whose natural limits have long been recognized by naturalists. Indeed, the monophylyof this order has never been seriously questioned. The use of turtles and their eggs as food and for medicinaland ceremonial purposes has made them of importance to mankind since prehistoric times.

Ils le font par passion, sur leur temps de loisir, et souvent en étroite collaboration avec des institutions académiques, en particulier les muséums d’histoire naturelle. Face à la crise d’extinction qui touche la biodiversité, cette collaboration entre amateurs et professionnels se renouvelle à travers notamment ce qui est appelé en France les sciences participatives.

It was generally known that Francis Buchanan was the Company’s next nominee for the post and if he refused there would be no shortage of contenders. Among them was Thomas Hardwicke (1755-1835), an all-round amateur naturalist with a predilection for zoology. Early in his military career he had botanized on a tour to Srinagar in Kashmir and described his gatherings in Asiatick Researches.

Yet the voice was indisputable. It continued to swear with that breadth and variety that distinguishes the swearing of a cultivated man.
