Addressing Pride and Reason in Man and Animals
A 17th century treatise argues against human exceptionalism, comparing human pride to others, noting animals show instinct, foresight, and craft. It asserts creatures possess abilities, such as parrots and dogs learning speech, bees maintaining order, and elephants and tigers displaying strength. It ends by urging moderation of human vanity and recognizing shared law under Providence.
