Romantic Natural History: "A website designed to survey relationships between literary works and natural history in the century before Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (1859)." Including links to various natural historians from the Eighteenth and Nineteenth centuries, illustrations and illustrators, literary figures in Romanticism, and, of course, much more.
This is great.

This is brilliant. A real treasure trove. These kind of posts are the best of mefi, as far as I'm concerned. I always hope that the lack of comments doesn't mean nobody reads them.
