Lidbeck, Eric Oustaf (1724-1803) 
Pritzel, 1st ed. (after Haller, 2:412-413)^ 
gives Lidbeck as author of "Dissertatio de sylvi- 
cultura Scaniae** (Lund, 1757), and ’’De utilitate 
plantationum arborum fructuumque in Scania" (Lon- 
dlni Gothorujn, 1768), the first of which is also 
mentioned by Gfintz, 3:50. Brit. Mus. has two ad¬ 
dresses before the K, Vetenskaps-Akademlen along 
similar lines: "Tal om Sk^nska plantagerna" (1755), 
and "Tal om planteringer" (1766), both probably 
published in the Handlingar of the Swedish acadany.

Liebault, Jean (oa. 1535-1596) 
Physician of Paris, and son-in-law of Charles 
Estienne, whose "Praedlm rusticum" (1554), he 
translated into French as "L’agriculture et mai- 
son rustique", Gibault observes that being des¬ 
titute of agricultural knowledge, Liebault added 
to the book many superstitions regarding the cul¬ 
ture of plants from Greek and Latin writers, is¬ 
suing it in its final enlarged form about 1570, 
The element of the miraculous, so popular in his 
time, gave the book a large sale, and Bouchard- 
Huzard says there were no less than 103 editions.
