Fabre Poet of Science is a biographical work written by Dr. G.V. Legros that explores the life and work of Jean-Henri Fabre, a French naturalist and entomologist. Fabre is regarded as one of the most important scientists of the 19th century and is known for his groundbreaking research on insects and their behavior. The book delves into Fabre's childhood, education, and early career, as well as his later years as a renowned scientist and writer. Legros also examines Fabre's literary works, which include numerous books and essays on insects, as well as his poetry and plays. Throughout the book, Legros highlights Fabre's contributions to the field of entomology, including his discoveries about the behavior of ants, bees, and other insects. He also explores Fabre's impact on the scientific community and his influence on later scientists and writers. Overall, Fabre Poet of Science offers a comprehensive look at the life and work of one of the most important figures in the history of science. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the natural world, entomology, or the history of science.In the domain of things positive, it is not always sufficient to gather the facts, to record them, and to codify in bare formulae the results of inquiry. Doubtless every essential discovery is able to stand by itself; in what would an inventor profit, for example, by raising himself to the level of the artist? For the theorem lucidity suffices; truth issues naked from the bottom of a well.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
