More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 His mimetic faculty, like Gough's, gave him something of the quality of an actor, so that he illustrated well what he had to say. The Life of Phineas T. Barnum The extraordinary perfection of these mimetic resemblances is most wonderful. The Naturalist in Nicaragua But this does not in reality differ from the Aristotelian mimetic, which is concerned, not only with the real, but also with the possible. Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic Up to the present time Burchell is the only naturalist who has observed an example which still exhibits this ancestral stage in the evolution of mimetic likeness. Darwin and Modern Science I wrote to Bates, and he will send you his mimetic paper; and I dare say others: he is a first-rate man. More Letters of Charles Darwin — Volume 1 Instruction among savage peoples is always imparted in more or less mimetic dances. Pagan and Christian creeds: their origin and meaning All over the world wasps are imitated in form and movements by other insects, and in the tropics these mimetic forms are endless. The Naturalist in Nicaragua His answer was that art or mimetic does not realize the ideas, or the truth of things, but merely reproduces natural or artificial things, which are themselves mere shadows of the ideas. Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic It is extremely common for a non-mimetic male to be accompanied by a beautifully mimetic female and often by two or three different forms of female, each mimicking a different model. Darwin and Modern Science That is another kind of mimetic magic expressed by the term nazoraeru. Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things Every function of life, war, agriculture, the chase, had its appropriate magical and mimetic dance and song, as in Finland, among Red Indians, and among Australian blacks. A Collection of Ballads The long narrow wings of the Heliconii butterflies, banded with black, yellow, and red, distinguish them from all others, excepting the mimetic species. The Naturalist in Nicaragua Nor is this surprising when we think of the numbers of abundant conspicuous butterflies which he saw exhibiting mimetic likenesses. Darwin and Modern Science It should be noted that the male of this species does exhibit a mimetic pattern on the under surface. Darwin and Modern Science On the other hand a non-mimetic female accompanied by a mimetic male is excessively rare. Darwin and Modern Science I must not pass over a discovery of Poulton's which is of great theoretical importance—that mimetic butterflies may reach the same effect by very different means. Darwin and Modern Science I have heard this urged as a reason for believing that they could not have been produced by natural selection, because a much less degree of resemblance would have protected the mimetic species. The Naturalist in Nicaragua We find, however, that Burchell had more than once recorded the mimetic resemblance to ants. Darwin and Modern Science Thus the reddish marks which are common in many individuals of Limenitis arthemis were almost certainly the starting-point for the evolution of the beautifully mimetic L. archippus.
