At the beginning of Daniel’s life he wasn’t allowed to choose what he wanted to be or be able to pursue the career he wanted, but this shaped the…

makes an effort to appeal to realistic Americans concerned about the education of upcoming generations. The story begins with a frustrated temper “ I PASSED ALL THE OTHER COURSES that I took at my University , but I could never pass botany”. Thurber was the fail in botany class.

The botany of desire defines how, contrary to common acceptance, we do not use plants, just as plants use us, which provoked humans to ensure their survival, appealing to our desires for beauty…

with all [the knowledge and experiences] you have gained” after arriving at your destination. Like the promises made in the poem, Alexander von Humboldt longed to adventure in pursuit of knowledge. As Humboldt outgrew adolescence, his passion for botany pushed him to travel to Latin America. The struggles he faced during the journey molded him to develop various ideas that people accepted. When Humboldt passed away, the people he influenced were a part of his great legacy.…

1770, Captain James Cook reached the South-East coast of Australia. They named it Botany Bay for the many unique plant specimens collected by his companions Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander.

During this period, Britain…
