Caliban

Caliban: The Missing Link is a book written by Daniel Wilson and published in 1873. The book explores the theory of evolution and the idea of the missing link between humans and apes. Wilson argues that this missing link is Caliban, a character from Shakespeare's play The Tempest. Wilson uses a combination of literary analysis and scientific research to support his claim. He examines the character of Caliban and draws parallels between him and the primitive human ancestors that he believes existed. He also looks at the physical characteristics of apes and humans and suggests that Caliban's appearance could be a representation of this missing link.The book was written during a time when the theory of evolution was still controversial and not widely accepted. Wilson's work was seen as a bold and innovative attempt to bridge the gap between science and literature. Overall, Caliban: The Missing Link is a thought-provoking book that explores the intersections between literature and science. It provides a unique perspective on the theory of evolution and the search for the missing link between humans and apes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
