Abstract
"Principios de botánica en cartas a una Señora" is an elementary course of botany published in "Semanario de Agricultura y Artes dirigido a los Párroco"s in 1802. Formally addressed to a lady, it was based on the first part of the treatise "Descripción de las plantas" written by Antonio José Cavanilles (1802). In the article we examine the modifications introduced by the author in order to adapt the course to the non-specialized reader, we also comment on the existing relationship between "Principios de botánica en cartas a una Señora" and "Lettres élémentaires sur la botanique" by Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
