‎Édition originale du voyage de Macartney sans 5eme volume contenant le précis de l’histoire de Chine par Huttner (1-184) et la relation de son voyage (187-358) dans une reliure uniforme . Macartney fut envoyé en Chine par George III pour établir un contact avec les élites de la dynastie Qing , en rapporter toutes les observations possibles, tant sur le plan des mœurs, de la nature que du commerce et de rétablir la balance du commerce avec la Chine , largement déficitaire . Il traversa en grande partie le pays et s’arrêta à Tianjin et à Pékin, pour arriver à Rehe, résidence de l'empereur , mais par arrogance ou ignorance , les membres de l’ambassade ne suivirent pas les protocoles des chinois et comme l’écrit Anderson (secrétaire d’ambassade) ,"En trois mots voici notre histoire : nous entrâmes à Pékin comme des mendiants, nous y séjournâmes comme des prisonniers et nous en sortîmes comme des voleurs’’. Le choc des cultures , l’incompréhension de la complexité de l’appareil politique chinois et la volonté des anglais de pénétrer le marché présageait la guerre de l’opium et l’affaiblissement de l’empire de Chine.P1-16(12)‎

‎Macellari, Elena‎

‎Le signore della botanica. Storie di grandi naturaliste italiane‎

‎[Botanica]cm 16,5 x 24 Pag. 224 Illustrazioni: 90 Per molto tempo le scienze botaniche, a livello ufficiale, sono state riservate agli uomini: erano loro ad essere considerati gli scienziati e gli esperti in materia. In realtà, fin dall'antichità le donne hanno fatto uso della botanica a scopo terapeutico, e sicuramente molte scoperte in questo ambito sono da attribuire al loro lavoro. Un sapere a volte praticato nell'ombra, sofferto e taciuto, accanto a quello accademico degli uomini. Solo a partire dal Novecento le donne poterono far parte di accademie scientifiche e società botaniche, dando così il loro prezioso contributo come scienziate. Elena Macellari, con un minuzioso e attento lavoro di ricerca d'archivio, ha sapientemente ricostruito gli studi e le ricerche compiute da numerose botaniche italiane del Novecento, poco conosciute al grande pubblico, come Eva Mameli Calvino, Eleonora Francini, Albina Messeri e Carmela Cortini.L'autrice, con una scrittura chiara e nello stesso tempo coinvolgente, ci prende per mano e ci conduce alla scoperta della vita e dell'opera di queste affascinanti figure femminili: donne che, nonostante le discriminazioni ancora presenti in campo scientifico nel XX secolo, hanno saputo dare un contributo significativo nel settore della botanica. Il libro è corredato da preziose immagini che ci permettono di conoscere meglio queste studiose e appassionate di botanica e il contesto culturale e scientifico del nostro recente passato. La botanica è anche donna: questo arriveremo ad affermare a gran voce alla fine della lettura di questo libro, grati e riconoscenti a queste donne che, con forza e determinazione e tra mille difficoltà, sono riuscite ad esprimere la loro personalità e a portare avanti la loro opera.‎
