Sinopsis

The Natural Philosophy of Love is an exploration of the prodigious sexual mores of Nature&rsquo,s creations. Translated with a postscript by Ezra Pound, Remy de Gourmont&rsquo,s &ldquo,essay on sexual instinct&rdquo, surveys the entire animal kingdom, describing the hermaphroditism of oysters, the cannibalistic amours of spiders, and many more curious natural phenomena. Blending zoology, poetry, and philosophy, the author&rsquo,s subversive erudition casts a dubious glance at anthropocentric morality, finding &ldquo,there is no lewdness which has not its normal type in nature.&rdquo,
