Jesus, Carlos A. Martins de, "Amato Lusitano e a importância da ilustração botânica no século XVI: em torno das edições lionesas das Enarrationes (1558)", dins: Andrade, António Manuel Lopes - Miguel Mora, Carlos de - Torrão, João Manuel Nunes (coords.), Humanismo e Ciência: Antiguidade e Renascimento, Aveiro - Coimbra - Sao Paulo, UA Editora - Universidade de Aveiro - Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra - Annablume, 2015, 303-316.

Resum

This paper aims to revisit the polemics around the 1558' edition of Amato's Enarrationes in Lyon (France), an assignment made by four publishers. In a more strict way, it aims to look for the circumstances that made this edition the first one to include pictures, scale-made reproductions of the engraves produced to Fuchs' De historia stirpium (1542). In a paper that intents to be a discussion on the political and practical contexts of scientific edition in the second half of the sixteenth century, Amatus' work is indeed paradigmatic, both for the absence and the (more and more necessary) presence of pictures.
