출판사 서평

동물원의 동물들의 생활. The Book of Life at the Zoo, by C. J. Cornish
PREFACE
IT may be said that some of the subjects of these notes are not
obviously part of life at the Zoo, and this remark would be well
founded. They have in the writer’s mind a connection with the Zoo,
which perhaps is not obvious, and might not appeal to the majority of
readers, and would certainly take more time to set out than its value
warrants. So that if any reader or critic cares to press the point, he is
prepared to say at once, mea culpa.
The chapters on Animal Æsthetics, dealing with the sensibility of the
inmates of the Zoo to music, will be found under the title of “ Orpheus
at the Zoo,” by which they originally appeared in the Spectator, to the
editors of which paper the author owes his thanks for suggesting
many subjects of interest at the Zoo which would not have occurred
to him, and for their kind permission to publish these, as well as other
chapters in an extended form. He hopes that both these, and the
unpublished chapters which are now added, present a fair picture of
the many- sided present, as well as some glimpses of the past, of the
famous menagerie in Regent’s Park.
For the insertion of animal drawings by Japanese artists, in addition
to Mr. Gambier Bolton’s photographs, the writer must plead the
conviction, which he has long maintained, that their truth to Nature is
of its kind unrivalled.
