About this person

Göran Rothman was a Swedish physician, naturalist and translator, remembered as an apostle of Carl Linnaeus. Trained at Uppsala during the final flowering of the Linnaean school, he combined medical practice with botanical collecting and a brief, ill-fated scientific expedition to North Africa. His later years were spent practising medicine and producing Swedish translations of Voltaire, Alexander Pope and Italian libretti, while the flowering-plant genus Rothmannia preserves his name in taxonomy.
