Et Prisskrift by JW Hornemann, Member of det physiske Selskap i Jena.\u003cbr\u003e Here we have the first edition of this award-winning book by Jens Hornemann. \u003cbr\u003eJens Wilken Hornemann (born March 6, 1770 in Marstal, died July 30, 1841 in Copenhagen) was a Danish botanist, professor of botany at Copenhagen University (from 1808), director of the Botanical Garden (from 1817) and publisher of Flora Danica. He was the brother of Christian Hornemann.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e He lived between 1804 and 1841 in Nyhavn 4, which was the official residence of Charlottenborg. \u003cbr\u003eHis father, Jacob Utzon Hornemann, was a priest in Marstal. His mother Margrethe Dorothea was born in Sadolin. After being tutored by his father until he was 14, he spent two years in the house of the parish priest in Vester Skjerninge, Morten Thomsen Bredsdorff, who later married Hornemann's sister. Under Bredsdorff's guidance, he was able to lay the foundation for the sense of nature and its details that would determine his future. He received his high school preparation for the student exam in Copenhagen from the age of 16 to 18 from Jens Bindesbøll, who later became his brother-in-law, and from his older brother, Christian Hornemann. Martin Vahl's lectures were of great importance to Hornemann, because the acquaintance and association with him gave Hornemann \"a spark of the flame, which filled the indre of this rare man\", as Hornemann himself wrote later. When Hornemann already lost his way in his 17th year, he had to give tuition to be able to cope, and he decided to study medicine. For some years, he alternately spent the summer as a house teacher with chamberlain Rosenørn in Ulriksholm (Fyn) and the winter in Copenhagen, where he continued his studies. He gave up his medical studies soon after, because he was encouraged to do so by his natural history teachers, especially Vahl and Abildgaard (probably Peter Christian Abildgaard), but also out of his own motives. Then he concentrated exclusively on botany. But a special reason was also that Johan Bülow in 1793 had set aside prizes for the two best Danish economic plant teachers. Hornemann received the first prize from the Naturhistoriselskabet, and in 1796 the prize-winning manuscript was published under the name Forsøg til en dansk ékonomics Plantelære. It was so successful that a second edition came out in 1806 and a much larger edition in 1821-37.","brand":"Bókin.is","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51124803633480,"sku":"OSC-41860","price":19500.0,"currency_code":"ISK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/4029\/9848\/files\/45729.jpg?v=1754787201","url":"https:\/\/www.bokin.is\/en\/products\/forsg-til-en-dansk-oekonomisk-plantelaere-45729-41860","provider":"bokin.is","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
