Definition of Natural History "Natural history" is an umbrella term for what are now usually viewed as a number of distinct scientific disciplines. Most definitions include the study of living things (e. g. biology, including botany (植物 学) and zoology); other definitions extend the topic to include paleontology (古生物学), ecology or biochemistry, as well as parts of geology and physics and even meteorology (气象学). In the 18 th century and well into the 19 th century, natural history as a term was frequently used to refer to all scientific studies, as opposed to political or ecclesiastical history. As such, the subject area would include all aspects of physics, astronomy, archeology (考 古学), etc. This broad usage is still used for some institutions including museums and societies. ■

Samuel Scudder Samuel Hubbard Scudder (1837~1911): American entomologist(昆虫学 家) Born in Boston, he was graduated from Williams College and got his B. A. (1857) and then he got his B. S. at Harvard (1862). As the founder of American insect paleontology (古 生 物 学 ) and an authority on Orthoptera (直翅目) and Lepidoptera (鳞翅目), he was assistant to Louis Agassiz (1862~1864), custodian of the Boston Society of Natural History (1864~1870), assistant librarian of Harvard (1879~1882), and paleontologist of the U. S. Geological Survey (1886~1892). His works include A Century of Orthoptera (1879), Butterflies: Their Structure, Changes, and Life-Histories (1881), and Fossil Insects of North America (1890). ■
Louis Agassiz Louis Rodolphe Agassiz (1807~1873): Swiss-American naturalist Born in Switzerland, he graduated in medicine (1830), worked in Paris and in 1832 accepted a professorship at the University of Neuchâtel. His early work on fossil fishes was followed by a systematic study of glaciers. In 1846 he went to America and in 1848 became professor of natural history at Harvard. Though a strong opponent of Darwin he proved himself one of the most influential (and most loved) teachers of science of his age. His A Journey in Brazil resulted from a scientific expedition to that country, but of his Contributions to the Natural History of the United States only four volumes were issued before his death, which took place while he was organizing a unique summer school at Penikese island on the Massachusetts coast. ■

Eau-de-Cologne Beginning in the 18 th century, Jean-Marie Farina started selling a fruit based alcohol solution in Cologne under the name of l'Eau Admirable, whose formula he obtained from his uncle, Jean-Paul Feminis, and whose therapeutic virtues were confirmed by Cologne College of Medicine. This tonic preparation with its fresh and fruity scent was known as Eau-de-Cologne in France, and became immensely popular all throughout Europe. It is one of the few kinds of perfume to be widely worn by men. In the early 19 th century, another Jean-Marie Farina, heir to the founder of the legendary company and its formula, settled in Paris and became the official supplier for the Emperor Napoleon I. In 1840, he sold his business to Léonce Collas who sold it again in 1862 to Messieurs Roger and Gallet who continue producing the legendary Eau de Cologne. ■

By drawing the fish in the afternoon, Scudder discovered new features in the fish but failed to notice its most conspicuous characteristic. The author discovered one new feature after another 71~85 when he began to work in earnest and saw how just the Professor's criticism had been. By the end of the third day, the author had learned 86~104 the best entomological lesson in his life, one that was to guide his subsequent study and research. The eight months Scudder spent studying 105~122 haemulons was of greater value to him than years of later investigation into insects.

Today educators stress critical thinking, which begins with close observation. Yet, the technique is not new, as we can see from this famous essay by Samuel Scudder, in which he recalls his education at Harvard in the 1850 s. In the essay, Scudder relates the lesson in observation he learned under Professor Agassiz. The professor's teaching method was simple. Instead of lecturing, he directed his young student to "look again, look again. "
Take This Fish and Look at It Samuel Scudder It was more than fifteen years ago that I entered the laboratory of Professor Agassiz, and told him I had enrolled my name in the Scientific School as a student of natural history. He asked me a few questions about my object in coming, my antecedents generally, the mode in which I afterwards proposed to use the knowledge I might acquire, and, finally, whether I wished to study any special branch. To the latter I replied that while I wished to be well grounded in all departments of zoology, I purposed to devote myself especially to insects.

Still I was conscious of a passing feeling of disappointment, for gazing at a fish did not commend itself to an ardent entomologist. My friends at home, too, were annoyed when they discovered that no amount of eau-de-Cologne would drown the perfume which haunted me like a shadow.

On my return, I learned that Professor Agassiz had been at the Museum, but had gone, and would not return for several hours. My fellow-students were too busy to be disturbed by continued conversation. Slowly I drew forth that hideous fish, and with a feeling of desperation again looked at it. I might not use a magnifying-glass; instruments of all kinds were interdicted. My two hands, my two eyes, and the fish: it seemed a most limited field. I pushed my finger down its throat to feel how sharp the teeth were. I began to count the scales in the different rows, until I was convinced that was nonsense. At last a happy thought struck me — I would draw the fish; and with surprise I began to discover new features in the creature. Just then the Professor returned. "That is right, " said he; "a pencil is one of the best of eyes. I am glad to notice, too, that you keep your specimen wet, and your bottle corked.

When I finished, he waited as if expecting more, and then, with an air of disappointment: "You have not looked very carefully; why, " he continued more earnestly, "you haven't even seen one of the most conspicuous features of the animal, which is plainly before your eyes as the fish itself; look again, look again!" and he left me to my misery. I was piqued; I was mortified. Still more of that wretched fish! But now I set myself to my task with a will, and discovered one new thing after another, until I saw how just the Professor's criticism had been. The afternoon passed quickly; and when, towards its close, the Professor inquired: "Do you see it yet? "
