The Feminine Monarchy - Charles Butler - Bog

The Feminine Monarchy: Or The History Of Bees is a book written by Charles Butler in 1623. The book is an exploration of the social structure and behavior of bees, and how it can be compared to human society. Butler uses his observations of bees to draw parallels between their hierarchical system and the monarchy of England at the time. The book is divided into two parts, the first being a scientific exploration of bee behavior and the second being an allegory for human society. Butler argues that the queen bee is the ruler of the hive, and that the workers and drones serve her, just as subjects serve their monarch. The book is considered to be one of the earliest works of entomology and has been influential in the study of bees and their behavior. The Feminine Monarchy: Or The History Of Bees is a fascinating look at the natural world and how it can be used to understand human society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
