Sobre IBD

Flora’s Lexicon is a book written by Catharine H. Waterman in 1855. The book is an interpretation of the language and sentiment of flowers, which was a popular concept during the Victorian era. The author provides an outline of botany, which is the study of plants, and a poetically written introduction. The book is essentially a guide to understanding the meanings behind different flowers and their symbolism. Each flower is given a description of its characteristics and symbolic meaning, which can be used to express emotions and sentiments in a subtle way. The book is a fascinating insight into the language of flowers and the Victorian era, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of botany, symbolism, and language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
