GASPARD BAUHIN (1560-1624), Swiss botanist and anatomist, was the son of a French physician, JeanBauhin (1511-1582), who had to leave his native country on becoming a convert to Protestantism.
He was born at Basel on the 17th of January 1560, and devoting himself to medicine, he pursued his studies at Padua, Montpellier, and some of the celebrated schools in Germany.
His son, JEAN GASPARD BAUHIN (1606-1685), was professor of botany at Basel for thirty years.
JeanBauhin was the son of a French doctor, a native of Amiens, who had been converted to protestantism by reading the Latin translation of the New Testament prepared by Erasmus.
JeanBauhin's more famous brother, Gaspard [or Caspar] (Plate XI), was born in 156o, and was thus the younger by nineteen years.
Bauhin's `Pinax' converted chaos into order, since it contained the first complete and methodical concordance of the names of plants, and was so authoritative as to earn for the author the title of "législateur en botanique." The work, which dealt with about 6000 plants, was recognised as pre-eminent for many years.
