Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the principles of animal communication and mutual understanding. Beginning by distinguishing between the soul and mentality, the author posits that psychological principles, rather than a language system, form the basis of animal communication. The author asserts that all organic beings manifest emotional and spiritual faculties, from simple life forms to man, although the expression of such capacities varies by species and rank in the organic world. While animal communication is not a systematic language as ours is, it nonetheless facilitates a level of understanding that serves animals' personal needs. The author delves into the relationship between instinct and animal understanding, explaining that instinct is an intellectual disposition influenced by the motivating idea of maintaining existence, an idea that manifests differently according to each animal's cerebral organization. Thought transference, or the transmission of feelings and motives from one individual to another, is also explored. The author argues that animals are conscious of their own existence and the need to maintain it, and therefore have the capacity for reflection and decision-making. Emotional effects and their relation to demonstrative expressions, such as gestures and sounds, are examined in detail, as are the evolution of sound-producing organs and the susceptibility of hearing faculties. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the principles of animal communication, offering valuable insights into the emotional and intellectual lives of our fellow creatures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
