Informazioni sull'autore

Jean-Henri Casimir Fabre (21 December 1823 - 11 October 1915) was a French scientist, entomologist, and novelist recognized for the vibrant language of his popular insect-life books. Fabre was born in Saint-Léons, Aveyron, France on December 22, 1823. Due to his family's poverty, Fabre was primarily self-taught. Nonetheless, at the age of 19, he obtained a primary teaching credential and began teaching in Carpentras while continuing his studies. He was recruited to a teaching position at Ajaccio (Corsica) in 1849, then to the lycée in Avignon in 1853. Fabre was a well-known physicist, chemist, and botanist. However, he is best renowned for his discoveries in the discipline of entomology, or the study of insects, and is widely regarded as the father of modern entomology. Much of his ongoing fame stems from his exceptional teaching abilities and his penchant for writing about the lives of insects in biographical form, which he favoured over a clinically detached, journalistic style of recording. His Souvenirs Entomologiques is a collection of bug and arachnid literature. Charles Darwin referred to Fabre as "an inimitable observer" in his later writings. Fabre, on the other hand, was a Christian who was skeptical of Darwin's theory of evolution, as he was skeptical of all theories and systems.
