Summary "De Wereld vóór de schepping van den mensch" by Camille Flammarion is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the origins of the Earth and the evolution of life, ultimately exploring the emergence of humanity from a scientific perspective. Flammarion's exploration combines both geology and biology, drawing on historical scientific thought to examine the planet's past and the processes that have shaped it. The opening of the text establishes a vivid contrast between the barren, primordial Earth and the thriving world filled with human activity that exists today. Flammarion paints a picture of a time when no life existed—the landscape was dominated by wild, untamed forests and vast deserts, devoid of civilization. He reflects on the gradual development of the Earth and its life forms, suggesting a deep interconnection between all living beings. The text underscores that humans are not a sudden creation but rather an outcome of a long evolutionary journey, leading to questions about our origins and relationship with the natural world.
