Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America During the Years 1799-1804 Volume 1 by Aime Bonpland,Alexander Von Humboldt Pdf

A titanic figure in the scientific community, Alexander von Humboldt's contribution in the realms of geography, botany and philosophy cannot be overstated. Born in Berlin in 1769, the son of a Prussian minister, he traveled in four continents, wrote at least 36 books and 25,000 letters throughout his long and adventurous life. Known to sleep just four hours a night, and down coffee by the pint, Humboldt's boundless energy and enthusiasm were at times invigorating, at times trying for his travel companions. Yet so great were his contributions viewed that he has numerous plants, animals, geological features, astronomical features, schools and places named after him to this day. His approach to scientific exploration and observation inspired other notables such as Charles Darwin, Henry David Thoreau and John Muir.In Volume 1 of his Personal Narrative, Humboldt offers a firsthand account of histravels with French explorer and botanist Aimé Bonpland in the Americas."The most dangerous worldviews are the worldviews of those who have never viewed the world."― Alexander von Humboldt

Views of the Cordilleras and Monuments of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas by Alexander von Humboldt Pdf

In 1799, Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland set out to determine whether the Orinoco River connected with the Amazon. But what started as a trip to investigate a relatively minor geographical controversy became the basis of a five-year exploration throughout South America, Mexico, and Cuba. The discoveries amassed by Humboldt and Bonpland were staggering, and much of today’s knowledge of tropical zoology, botany, geography, and geology can be traced back to Humboldt’s numerous records of these expeditions. One of these accounts, Views of the Cordilleras and Monuments of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas, firmly established Alexander von Humboldt as the founder of Mesoamerican studies. In Views of the Cordilleras—first published in French between 1810 and 1813—Humboldt weaves together magnificently engraved drawings and detailed texts to achieve multifaceted views of cultures and landscapes across the Americas. In doing so, he offers an alternative perspective on the New World, combating presumptions of its belatedness and inferiority by arguing that the “old” and the “new” world are of the same geological age. This critical edition of Views of the Cordilleras—the second volume in the Alexander von Humboldt in English series—contains a new, unabridged English translation of Humboldt’s French text, as well as annotations, a bibliography, and all sixty-nine plates from the original edition, many of them in color.
