The insect is one of the four remarkable works in which the late Jules Michelet embodies the results of a loving and persevering study of nature. These works are absolutely unique . The poetry of science was never before illustrated on so large a scale, with so much vividness of fancy or in so eloquent a style. The aspects of nature were never before examined with so strong an enthusiasm or so definite an individuality,- with so eager a desire to identify them with the feelings, hope and aspirations of humanity. Michelet approached his subject, neither as a philosopher nor a poet, but yet with something of the spirit of both.
The exquisite illustrations by M. P. Giacomelli, have all been especially drawn and engraved for this English edition.
