| adam_text | ‘Nothing so fully displays the grandeur of his mind
as his immense and rare collections ... perhaps the
fullest and most curious in the world’
National Gazette y 1V53
Hans Sloane (1660-1753) was the greatest collector of
his time, and one of the greatest of all time. His name
is familiar today from the London streets and squares
named after him on land he once owned, but the man
himself, and his achievements, are almost forgotten.
Born in the north of Ireland, Sloane made his fortune
as a physician to London s wealthiest residents
and through investment in land and slavery. He
became one of the eighteenth century s preeminent
natural historians (ultimately succeeding his rival
Isaac Newton as President of the Royal Society) and
assembled an astonishing collection of specimens,
artefacts and oddities — the most famous curiosity
cabinet of the age.
Sloane s dream of universal knowledge, of a gathering
together of every kind of thing in the world, was
enabled by Britain s rise to global ascendancy. In 1687
he travelled to Jamaica, then at the heart of Britain s
commercial empire, to survey its natural history, and
later organized a network of correspondents who sent
him curiosities from across the world. Shortly after his
death, Sloane s vast collection was then acquired — as
he had hoped — by the nation. It became the nucleus of
the world s first national public museum, the British
Museum.
This is the first biography of Sloane in over sixty years
and the first based on his surviving collections. Early
modern science and collecting are shown to be global
endeavours intertwined with imperial enterprise and
slavery but which nonetheless produced one of the
great public institutions of the Enlightenment, as the
cabinet of curiosities gave way to the encyclopaedic
museum. Collecting the World describes this pivotal
moment in the emergence of modem knowledge, and
brings this totemic figure back to life.
