Signed
pp.264 with col. and b/w. illus. Large 8vo. Fine hardback, with gilt lettering and decoration, in fine dw. Half-title signed by the translator and author of the introduction (Staffan Muller-Wille). Linnaeus's first monograph Musa Cliffortiana describes one of the earliest banana plants ever to bear fruit in Europe. Linnaeus achieved this horticultural feat in 1736 by replicating tropical conditions for a banana plant in a glasshouse in George Clifford's famous garden, the Hartenkamp, in Holland. Musa Cliffortiana is much more detailed than most of Linnaeus's works and even allows space for his speculation on whether the banana, which he was eventually to name Musa paradisiaca, was the `forbidden fruit' of the Bible. This is the first modern translation of the book. It contains many pages showing Linnaeus's own handwritten annotations and notes, as well as reproductions of the two plates that accompanied it and eleven additional illustrations from other sources.
