The Tale of Insects is a book written by Fabres. He spent his whole life observing the life of insects and their struggle for survival and reproduction, and then recorded his observations in detail and accurately. Insects has ten volumes, each volume contains several chapters, and each chapter describes the life of one or more insects in detail and profoundly: spiders, bees, mantis, scorpions, cicadas, beetles, crickets and so on.
Artistic features: The author recorded the achievements and experiences of his life's insect research in the form of prose, and integrated insects and human nature in the complex natural scientific evidence, making the insect world a literary form for human beings to acquire knowledge, interest, beauty and thoughts, and writing the topic of small insects into a masterpiece with hierarchical significance and all-round value. Such a work is really unprecedented in the world. No entomologist has such brilliant literary expression ability, and no writer has such profound entomological attainments. Without such a tenacious Fabres, our world would never have read about an insect.
What is even more impressive is Fabres's description of the inverted posture of insects: for example, in a metal cage, mantis larvae stay in one place without changing their posture. It hooks the net with the tips of four hind paws, with its back facing down and motionless, and hangs high on the top of the cage. The four hanging points bear the weight of the whole body. The handstand posture is very difficult, but the handstand posture of flies is very different. Although the fly is hanging on the ceiling, it always needs time to relax and fly casually.
