the ascent of sap is thus an important case to see the role fo plant studies in physics and physiology - which I discussed in this article. Borelli inspired Marcello Malpighi's work at large #vegscilif

one of the central questions of my article, in which I explore the ascent of sap, is to focus on the ways premodern scholars interpreted this motion either as passive or active. This has crucial consequences on their definition of plant life #plantlife #vegscilif #histsci #ascentsap #17thcentury🌿
My special issue on gardens and plants as laboratories of premodern science is out on @royalsocietypublishing.org #notesandrecords #nrrs #histplants #histsci #vegscilif #envhist with articles by me, Luzzini on minerals, @johedesan.bsky.social on Guy de La Brosse, Jalobeanu on Bacon, and Benharrech🌱
