Indeed, it is the direct and unmediated encounter with particular places and the natural objects found within them that has often been held to distinguish naturalists from other students of the natural world, particularly from laboratory scientists. In his 1994 memoir Naturalist, for example, E.O. Wilson writes of a formative childhood summer spent at Florida's Paradise Beach encountering jellyfish, stingrays, and other forms of sea life: 'Hands-on experience at the critical time, not systematic knowledge, is what counts in the making of a naturalist.' Similar claims for the importance of emplaced, embodied experience in the establishment of naturalists' identities and expertise have been embraced by historians of natural history and of the range of specialised field sciences that have emerged from it over the past two centuries, from geology to ecology. From this perspective, the scientist's placeless and universalist form of expertise may flourish in the sterile atmosphere of the laboratory, but it can never rival the holistic, experiential and embodied knowledge acquired by the naturalist in direct contact with the natural world in all its messy complexity.1 Disciplines Anthropology | History of Science, Technology, and Medicine | Place and Environment This book chapter is available at ScholarlyCommons: https://repository.upenn.edu/hss_papers/38","PeriodicalId":252583,"journal":{"name":"Worlds of Natural History","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121169409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
