Rencontrer les plantse

Approche according to the method of Goethe

Editions Amyris , 320 pages

All you have to do is return to a living environment with nature, so you don't have to be totally separated in your own quotation. Par la phénoménologie goethéenne de la nature initiée par Goethe, les authors nous invited à nous ouvrir à la nature et aux plants et à développer une attitude active d'étonnement et d'émerveillement afin de percevoir une autre réalité des plants et de leurs huiles essential. It affirms that the essential oil is made up of an ensemble of molecules that provides global information that can be redone in the same way as its components.

After exposing the approach to Goethe's method, the precise methods used for exploration and appraisal of the globality of the plants of the family of Lamiacées and the essential human beings; comment les redécouvrir par le goût, l'odeur et la morphologie.

Ars Herbaria – Medicinal Plants Throughout the Year

1st edition 2014, unchanged reprint 2018

351 pages and numerous illustrations, hardcover
35 euros, ISBN 978-3-7235-1521-1 / EAN: 9783723515211

The handling of medicinal plants, from identification and research to harvesting, processing, and proper application, is presented here as a skill, the "Ars Herbaria," an art in which tradition, experience, and modern science are interwoven. Based on the primal relationships between plant, humankind, and landscape, trees, shrubs, medicinal plants, and culinary herbs are depicted in a dynamic, lifelike manner: in the rhythm of the annual cycle, which, with its moods, turning points, and festivals, shapes growth and decay on our planet.
