Lecons Élémentaires d'Histoire Naturelle


Book Description

Excerpt from Lecons Elementaires d'Histoire Naturelle: Comprenant un Apercu sur Toute la Zoologie Et un Traite de Conchyliologie Madame, Vous m'avez fait l'honneur de me demander quelques lecons sur l'histoire des Coquilles et sur la methode a l'aide de laquelle on parvient a classer des etres si singuliers et si varies. Je comprends parfaitement tout l'interet que doivent vous inspirer les collections precieuses de M. Benjamin Delessert, et le desir bien naturel que vous avez de consacrer quelques moments a une etude qui vous promet les plus agreables loisirs; mais, tout en n'hesitant pas a repondre a une demande si flatteuse pour moi, je suis loin d'etre rassure sur la maniere dont je m'acquitterai d'une tache aussi difficile. Vous avez surtout augmente mes craintes, madame, en me confiant les lettres que Jean-Jacques Rousseau ecrivit a madame Delessert pour lui permettre d'apprendre elle-meme la botanique a sa tille Marguerite-Madeleine Delessert, depuis madame Gautier, votre mere, ainsi que l'herbier qu'il forma pour lui faciliter l'intelligence de ses lecons. Vous n'attendez pas de moi la perfection du style de l'auteur de ces lettres admirables. Je n'aurai de commun avec lui que le desir de rendre la science plus accessible a votre fille, en vous laissant le soin de lui en tracer vous-meme le tableau dans les limites que vous jugerez convenables; et vous serez assez indulgente pour comprendre que mes lecons ne pourraient supporter aucune autre comparaison.
