摘要
陈淏子《花镜》是我国现存最早的园艺专著。它记载了三百多种花木果树的品种和栽培方法,总结了劳动人民与自然界斗争的经验,指出人工培育可以改变植物的特性,强调"人力可以夺天工"(人定胜天)的思想,与米丘林的"我们不能等待自然的恩赐,而是要向自然索取"的观点基本相同。
As the first horticultural document hitherto found in China,Hua Jing(A Mirror of Flowers,1688) by Chen Haozi(c.1612-?) records more than 300 kinds of flowers and fruit trees as well as the expertise on their growing.It is a summarization of ancient Chinese people's experience in getting along with the nature.Arguing that artificial culture can modify botanic characteristics,it emphasizes that "Man can conquer Nature," an idea that proves essentially the same as,but prior to,that of the Russian botanist I.V.Michurin(1855-1935),who announces that "We cannot wait for favors from Nature.To take them from it-that is our task."
