菲利普·亨利·戈斯
發明海水水族箱,普及海洋生物
Philip Henry Gosse FRS, known to his friends as Henry, was an English naturalist and populariser of natural science, virtually the inventor of the seawater aquarium, and a painstaking innovator in the study of marine biology. Gosse created and stocked the first public aquarium at the London Zoo in 1853, and coined the term "aquarium" when he published the first manual, The Aquarium: An Unveiling of the Wonders of the Deep Sea, in 1854. His work was the catalyst for an aquarium craze in early Victorian England. 戈斯也是《臍》一書的作者,該書試圖將查爾斯·萊爾所預設的地質年代與《聖經》中的創世敘述相調和。戈斯去世後,在其子、詩人兼評論家埃德蒙·戈斯於1907年出版的回憶錄《父與子》中,他被描繪為一位宗教觀點毫不妥協、專橫跋扈的父親。
