  • Richard Anthony Salisbury FRS was a British botanist. He was born in Leeds, England, the son of Richard Markham. He changed his last name to Salisbury following a supposed financial arrangement for support in his studies. This arrangement was claimed to have been made with a Mrs. Anna Salisbury, related by marriage to his grandmother, but this was apparently a fiction. He married Caroline Staniforth in 1796. Only one child, Eleanor, was born to the couple, in 1797. The two separated shortly thereafter. Apparently Salisbury had misrepresented his finances to Caroline when he had proposed marriage. By the times of his daughter's birth, he was deeply, hopelessly in debt. He was subsequently arrested for his financial misrepresentations. He apparently recovered financially by 1802, when he bought a house. Salisbury violently opposed the Linnean system, which led others to ignore his work. As a result, he published a manuscript in 1809 under the name of a friend, Joseph Knight, entitled On the cultivation of the plants belonging to the natural order of Proteeae, which contained only 13 pages related to cultivation techniques, but over 100 pages of taxonomic revision. However, it turned out that the work had nonetheless freely plagiarised the work of yet another botanist who was at odds with Salisbury. Salisbury had memorised the plant names from Robert Brown's reading of his On the Proteaceae of Jussieu to the Linnean Society of London in the first quarter of 1809, which was subsequently published in March 1810. Knight and Salisbury thus beat Brown to print and claimed priority for the names that Brown had authored. As a result Salisbury was accused of plagiarism, ostracised from botanical circles, and his publications were largely ignored during his lifetime. Samuel Goodenough wrote: “ "How shocked was I to see Salisbury's surreptitious anticipation of Brown's paper on New Holland plants, under the name and disguise of Mr. Hibbert's gardener! Oh it is too bad!". ” Robert Brown himself wrote of Salisbury: “ I scarcely know what to think of him except that he stands between a rogue and a fool. ” Although Salisbury's generic names have almost all been overturned, many of his specific names have been reinstated; since the nominal author was Knight, not Salisbury, Knight is now considered the author of a great many Proteaceae species. Salisbury was known as a man who was difficult to get along with, and was shunned by many botanists of his day. Nonetheless, he was himself a meticulous botanist who contributed significantly to the science.
  • Richard Anthony Salisbury, eigentlich Richard Markham, war ein englischer Botaniker. Sein offizielles botanisches Autorenkürzel lautet „Salisb. “. Salisbury war ein radikaler Gegner der Taxonomie nach Linné, wodurch vieles seiner Arbeit als unbedeutend eingestuft wird. Trotzdem sind Teile seines Werkes bis heute relevant, vor allem Beschreibungen. Salisbury galt als ein schwieriger Charakter. Um die Jahrhundertwende war er extrem verschuldet, was zum Zerbrechen seiner Ehe mit Caroline Staniforth führte. Nachdem er das Werk eines anderen Botanikers plagiiert hatte, war seine wissenschaftliche Glaubwürdigkeit verloren.

  • Richard Anthony Salisbury est un botaniste britannique, né le 2 mai 1761 à Leeds et mort en 1829. Il est le fils de Richard Markham. Les raisons pour lesquels Richard change son nom en Salisbury ne sont pas très claires. Il semblerait qu’il l’ait fait pour financer ses études et obtenir une aide d’une certaine Mrs. Anna Salisbury. Il se marie avec Caroline Staniforth en 1796, union de laquelle naît leur seul enfant, Eleanor, l’année suivante. Le couple se sépare peu après, Richard Salisbury ayant trompé Caroline sur l’état de ses finances au moment de contracter le mariage. Très endetté, il est arrêté pour malversations financières. En 1802, sa situation financère semble s’être améliorer car il achète alors une maison. Il s’oppose vigoureusement au système de classification de Carl von Linné (1707-1778).

  • Richard Anthony Salisbury, som föddes 2 maj 1761 och dog 1829, var en brittisk botaniker. Han föddes i Leeds som son till Richard Markham. Han bytte efternamn till Salisbury i samband med ett finansiellt arrangemang med avsikt att trygga Salisburys studier. Det har hävdats att denna uppgörelse gjordes med en Anna Salisbury, som var släkt med Salisburys genom äktenskap, men detta har visat sig vara en fiktion. Han gifte sig 1796 med Caroline Staniforth och de fick en enda dotter Eleanor 1797. Kort därefter separerade de två. Salisbury var en stark motståndare till Linnés systematik, vilket i sin tur fick andra att betrakta Salisburys arbete med bristande respekt.
