Raven, Charles E.

English Naturalists from Neckam to Ray. A Study of the Making of the Modern World. 1947. (Reprint 2010). (Cambridge Library Collection, Life Sciences). X, 379 p. gr8vo. Paper bd.

C.E. Raven (1885-1964) was an academic theologianelected Regius Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge in 1932, who developed an interest in natural history and the history of scientific thought. First published in 1947, this volume demonstrates how changing attitudes to the natural world reflected and influenced the transformations in scientific thought between the medieval period and the eighteenth century. Ravens focus on the field of natural history reveals how the scientific ideas behind modern biological studies developed from the richly illustrated and often fantastical bestiaries of the medieval world. The subjects of this volume are grouped chronologically into Pioneers, Explorers and Popularisers, with biographical details woven together with discussions of their academic work. The book provided a wealth of new information concerning the founders of natural history and remains a valuable contribution to this subject.
