This peer reviewed series features books that examine the historic attitude of humans towards nature as an object of study, and the development of the field of knowledge we now know as natural history. Observing, collecting and explaining the diversity of nature has been important throughout history. This series addresses the many faces of natural history from the classical age up to the early nineteenth century. It is particularly designed to include volumes on the lives, work and networks of people whose contributions have proven foundational, but who have been overshadowed by more well-known figures such as Linnaeus and Darwin. Volumes encompass the global and cultural history of natural history, explore the role played by practitioners such as traveling naturalists, collectors, artists, and bring attention to indigenous, visual, and manuscript sources.
Books may be scholarly monographs or edited works, but we also welcome well-researched exhibition catalogues or primary source editions with comprehensive introductions. Contributions that address underexplored figures, themes, and (visual) sources from an interdisciplinary and historical perspective are particularly encouraged.
Authors are cordially invited to submit proposals and/or full manuscripts to either the series editors Aaron M. Bauer , Andreas Weber, and Dominik Hünniger , or the Publisher at Brill, Alessandra Giliberto.

Aaron M. Bauer is the Gerald M. Lemole Endowed Professor of Integrative Biology at Villanova University in Pennsylvania. He received his doctoral degree in Zoology from the University of California, Berkeley in 1986, was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Calgary, and since 1988 has been based at Villanova. His biological research focuses on the systematics, morphology and biogeography of lizards of the Southern Hemisphere. His historical interests are centered on the development of European natural history cabinets and museums from the 16th to the 19th centuries, the history of the biological exploration of Africa, Asia and the Pacific, and the history of comparative anatomy, systematics, and herpetology.
Dominik Hünniger is an environmental historian and curator at the German Port Museum in Hamburg. He is interested in 18th and 19th century environmental, medical and natural history as well as the history of infrastructure, logistics and technologies. His is also an affiliate researcher at the Hunterian, University of Glasgow and the Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change/Museum of Nature in Hamburg. He has published on the histories of animal disease, natural history collecting, labour and arts in natural history as well as on the history of universities and education.
Andreas Weber is an associate professor in the section Knowledge, Transformations, and Society (KiTeS) at the University of Twente in the Netherlands. He received his doctoral degree from Leiden University in 2012. His research focusses on (colonial) histories of natural history, chemistry, and governance in insular Southeast Asia and Europe in the long nineteenth century. He is also working on new methods to contextualize digitized natural and cultural heritage collections.
