Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. Delve into philosophical and literary reflections on the origin and nature of humanity with this thought-provoking book. The author explores the concept of an intermediate being between man and beast, using the character of Caliban from Shakespeare's "The Tempest" as a reference point. This creature, lacking reason and speech, raises questions about the gradual evolution of intelligence and the transition from the animalistic to the rational. The book also examines beliefs and scientific theories of the time, providing a rich tapestry of perspectives on the human condition. Through this exploration, the author uncovers profound insights into our own nature, inviting readers to contemplate the boundaries that define us as human beings.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Having acquired a Shakespeare folio for a few shillings, anthropologist Daniel Wilson (1816-92) found in The Tempest a source of scientific intrigue. Writing more than two hundred years before Darwin propounded his theory of evolution, in his final play Shakespeare had created a missing link caught between the animal and the human. In this monograph, first published in 1873, Wilson uses the strange and unfortunate character of Caliban as a means through which to explore the principles of evolution. He traces many of the play's plot devices back to real events that perhaps inspired them - from storms in Bermuda to records of semi-human creatures around the world - and brings literary commentary into science as he links the relationships set out in the play to anthropological principles. This interdisciplinary approach makes the book both an entertaining exegesis of the play and a uniquely accessible explanation of contemporary scientific theories.…
