  • Animal Fables from the Dark Continent-Alphonso Orenzo Stafford

    Animal Fables from the Dark Continent-Alphonso Orenzo Stafford
    Nov 10 2026
    Animal Fables from the Dark Continent by Alphonso Orenzo Stafford.

    A. O. Stafford, an African American educator and folklorist, wrote this collection of African and African Diaspora folktales for students in elementary school. By combining African and Diaspora stories together in a single collection, Stafford sought to demonstrate the storytelling continuity between African cultures and African American culture in the United States. The stories are all fables about animals, and many of them are trickster stories featuring the trickster rabbit and also stories about the trickster jackal. There are also "just-so" stories explaining the world of nature, such as how the hyena got its spots, how the dog became domesticated, etc.

  • Meteorology, On the Universe & On Breath-Aristotle

    Meteorology, On the Universe & On Breath-Aristotle
    Nov 9 2026
    Meteorology, On the Universe & On Breath by Aristotle.

    Meteorology (Greek: Μετεωρολογικά; Latin: Meteorologica or Meteora) by Aristotle Translated by Erwin Wentworth Webster before he fell in action in 1917. Book I: The Celestial Sphere, Stars & Precipitation Book II: Seas, Winds & Earthquakes Book III: Halos, Rainbows & Mock Suns Book IV: The Elements & Secondary Qualities On the Universe (Greek: Περὶ Κόσμου; Latin: De mundo) is attributed to Aristotle but may have been written by Posidonius the Stoic or someone well acquainted with his work. Two candidates for the Alexander addressed in the text are Alexander the Great and Tiberius Claudius Alexander, nephew of Philo Judaeus and Procurator of Judaea, and in A.D. 67 Prefect of Egypt. The text describes a geocentric universe and theorizes that other continents must exist beyond the Atlantic. Translated by Edward Seymour Forster.

    On the Parts of Animals by Aristotle.

    On the Parts of Animals (Greek: ΠΕΡΙ ΖΩΩΝ ΜΟΡΙΩΝ; Latin: De Partibus Animalium) by Aristotle (ΑΡΙΣΤΟΤΕΛΗΣ). The first book asks whether animals were designed or came into existence by chance. The remaining three books focus on particular examples of various animals and the functions of their organs. The translator William Ogle, who was both a medical doctor and classicist, presented Charles Darwin with a copy of this translation.
