PLANTUFRØÐILIGAR BÓKMENTIR FØROYUM VIÐVlKJANDI
Cand. mag. Annelise Hartmann bókavørði
á Botanisk Centralbibliotek, Keypmanna-
havn takki eg hjartaliga fyri hjálp við at út-
vega greinir og bøkur og fyri upplýsingar.
Eisini skal eg takka starvsfólkinum á Lands-
bókasavninum fyri hjálp og beinasemi. Bodil
Jóhansen hevur við stórum nærlagni skrivað
ritgerðalistan eftir upprunagreinunum — eitt
stórt og ofta sera trupult arbeiði, av tí at
bókmentirnar eru útkomnar ígjøgnum 350
ár og tí ógvuliga ymiskt ritstjórnaðar. Hilda
Bernhardson hevur maskinskrivað fyrst kort
og listar og síðan handritið. Eisini Marianna
Debes Dahl hevur hjálpt til. Fleiri onnur
fólk bæði innan- og uttanlands hava hjálpt
mær við ymiskum upplýsingum. Eg veiti øll-
um hesum — nevndum og ónevndum — mína
bestu tøkk.
Óivað eru mistøk gjørd, eins og helst er
okkurt, sum vantar. Eg fari kortini at enda
við hesum nú, men eri takksamur fyri at fáa
rættleiðingar, sum eg kann taka við næstu
ferð, tá listin skal endurskoðast og nýggjastu
ritgerðirnar frá 1981 og fram einaferð skulu
savnast.
A Faroese botanical bibliographv
from oldest times to 1980
In this paper I have tried to collect what has
been written about Faroese botany from the
oldest times up to 1980. The basis of the work
is Carl Christensen’s and Alfred Hansen’s:
»Den danske botaniske litteratur.« Besides
I have found some other papers and I decided
also to include literature about agriculture
concerning plants. The agricultural journals,
which all only appeared for short periods I
have only mentioned, without trying to pick
out single articles.
I have tried to work after certain rules.
Only papers and books which have been pu-
blished are included. Notes, diaries and ma-
nuscripts are excluded. Articles in newspa-
pers or popular weekly magazines are also
omitted. Larger surveys which show e.g.
worldwide distribution of plants including
the Faroes are not includeđ. Examples of
such works are Jessen and Mentz: Vilde plan-
ter i Norden; Hulten: The amphiatlantic
plants and Hegi: Illustrierte Flora von Mit-
teleuropa.
I have tried to include all books published
before 1900 when they mention plants, even
if only a few. No doubt some publications
from the 19th century of this kind have es-
caped my attention.
The article has been divided into three
parts. Part I is a list of all publications arran-
ged alphabetically after author. In part II I
have divided the publications into some
main subjects arranged chronologically. Part
III gives short biographies of the authors
mentioned in alphabetical order. I have not
succeeded in getting information about
them all, unfortunately. In those cases I have
written when the author was in the Faroes,
or if he has been there at all.
Abbreviations of the names of the journals
have been made in such a way, that I do not
think any further explanations are necessary.
However, I can mention that Hedes. Tids.
means Hedeselskabets Tidsskrift and Bot.
Tids. is Botanisk Tidsskrift. Other abbrevia-
tions are: md. = mynd (figure(s)); tlv. =
talva (table(s)); pl. = pláta (plate(s)); bls. =
blaðsiður (pages); bd. = bind (volume);
hft. = hefti (part).
