Autoren-Porträt von Jacques Labillardiere
Jacques-Julien Houtou de Labillardière was an eminent French botanist and explorer notable for his work during the Age of Enlightenment. Renowned for his expedition and contributions to natural science, Labillardière was born on October 28, 1755, in Alençon, France, and he later died on January 8, 1834. His journey in search of the ill-fated La Pérouse expedition, which vanished in Oceania, led to his significant publication 'Voyage In Search Of La Perouse Volume II'. This work not only chronicled the search and adventure but also detailed the rich flora and fauna encountered, emphasizing his botanical discoveries. Labillardière is particularly recognized for his taxonomic work, which includes the large-scale collection and classification of plant specimens from the Australasian region. His explorations contributed immensely to European knowledge of Australian botanical life. As a scientist, Labillardière's style is marked by the meticulous recording and description, typical of Enlightenment-era scholarship. His work remains a valuable reference for botanists and historians alike, providing insight into eighteenth-century exploration and the biodiversity of the Pacific regions. Further, his literary legacy includes another impressive work, 'Relation du Voyage à la Recherche de La Pérouse', which cements his reputation as a key historical figure in botanical exploration and scientific literature.
