  • 【黃麗如專欄|玩真的】200年前探險家就預告,這個夏天會很熱

    文/黃麗如2022年07月29日

    雖然知道這個夏天特別熱,也知道已經離「暑假」這種夢幻長假很遠很遠了,但出於暑期一定要出遊的生理反應,還是計劃頂著烈日出門。 或許因為我是夏天出生的人,熱愛豔陽天,但看到很多地方的氣溫屢創新高,還是會有點心驚。七月初,到台東朋友山坡上可以看海的房子小住幾天、拍下很藍的太平洋。我把 more
 

內容簡介

A breathtakingly illustrated and brilliantly evocative recounting of Alexander Von Humboldt’s five-year expedition in South America--from the author of Magnificent Rebels and the New York Times bestseller The Invention of Nature.

Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) was an intrepid explorer and the most famous scientist of his age. His restless life was packed with adventure and discovery, but his most revolutionary idea was a radical vision of nature as a complex and interconnected global force that does not exist for the use of humankind alone. His theories and ideas were profoundly influenced by a five-year exploration of South America. Now Andrea Wulf partners with artist Lillian Melcher to bring this daring expedition to life, complete with excerpts from Humboldt’s own diaries, atlases, and publications. She gives us an intimate portrait of the man who predicted human-induced climate change, fashioned poetic narrative out of scientific observation, and influenced iconic figures such as Simón Bolívar, Thomas Jefferson, Charles Darwin, and John Muir. This gorgeous account of the expedition not only shows how Humboldt honed his groundbreaking understanding of the natural world but also illuminates the man and his passion
