John Gerard (1545-1612) author of the famous English Herball of 1597 and the playwrightWilliam Shakespeare (1564-1616) were contemporaries in London. Their references to cucurbits (Cucurbitaceae) and nightshades (Solanaceae) encapsulate knowledge of these plants from both a botanical and a literary perspective in the English Renaissance. The genera of Cucurbitaceae (Bryonia, Citrullus, Cucumis, Ecballium, Lagenaria, Momordica) and Solanaceae (Atropa, Hyoscyamus, Mandragora, Physalis, Solanum, Withania) had a rich history in both medicine and food production in Antiquity and Medieval times in the Old World. The introduction of new crop genera (Cucurbita, Capsicum, Nicotiana, and other species of Solanaceae) into Europe and Asia after the European encounter with the NewWorld had a profound impact on European botanical science and horticulture. References to cucurbits and nightshades in the 1597 Herball of John Gerard and the plays of Shakespeare reflect scientific and public awareness of these plants in the English Renaissance. © 2012 Wiley-Blackwell.
