The circulation of collections: Barbosa Rodrigues’ Amazon Botanical Museum
2023
Maria Margaret Lopes
Abstract The article mentions aspects of the collections gathered in the Amazon Botanical Museum (Museu Botânico do Amazonas), directed by João Barbosa Rodrigues (1842-1909). It presents evidence of the continued circulation of some objects from these collections, even after the formal extinction of the Museum, which existed for seven years from 1883 to 1890. The interest of this article is to encourage further research on the subject of the circulation of collections and their proxies, to recover stories of donors, objects and museums that have been lost, in different times and places in the country, in order to value our continuously neglected scientific heritage.
