EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "For O it is such a Norrible Tail!": A Playful Depiction of Charles Darwin's Ancestor This whimsical and intriguing cartoon, titled "For O it is such a Norrible Tail!", depicts an amphibious ancestor of the renowned English naturalist, Charles Darwin. The image, created in 1882, offers a delightful blend of historical accuracy and artistic license, featuring Darwin as a young man playing with an insect, while his prehistoric ancestor, with an unusually long and peculiar tail, looks on in the background. Charles Darwin (1809-1882), a pioneering figure in the science of evolution, is best known for his groundbreaking theories on the natural selection and the origin of species. His work, published in "On the Origin of Species" in 1859, revolutionized the scientific understanding of the natural world and forever changed the way we perceive our place in the universe. The cartoon's title is a reference to a line from Shakespeare's "Macbeth," spoken by Lady Macbeth as she contemplates the serpentine nature of her husband's ambition. In this context, the "norrible tail" can be interpreted as a symbol of the complex and often unexpected twists and turns in the evolutionary process, which Darwin so brilliantly documented. The image, held by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the enduring fascination with Darwin's work and the human desire to explore the mysteries of our past. With its charming blend of history, science, and literature, this cartoon continues to intrigue and inspire viewers, offering a unique perspective on the life and legacy of one of the most influential thinkers in human history.
