Two Lectures, on the Natural History of the Caucasian and Negro Races
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Embark on a captivating journey into the 19th-century discourse surrounding the origins of humanity. This book delves into the then-contentious question of whether all humans descended from a single origin or multiple distinct ones. The author skillfully navigates the complex landscape of scientific inquiry and religious dogma, drawing upon evidence from history, archaeology, and the burgeoning field of natural history. Set against the backdrop of advancements in geology and Egyptology, the book challenges prevailing interpretations of biblical chronology and the story of Noah's Ark. The author presents compelling arguments based on the latest decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphics and the study of ancient skulls, suggesting a far more ancient and diverse human history than traditionally believed. The exploration extends beyond Egypt, encompassing the global distribution of human populations and the intriguing parallels found in the animal and plant kingdoms. By examining the concept of "species" and the influence of climate on various groups, the author invites readers to contemplate the intricate tapestry of human diversity. This book's insightful exploration of human origins offers a thought-provoking perspective on the interplay between science, religion, and the ever-evolving understanding of our place in the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333802950_0
