"History of Beasts" by Unknown is a historical account likely written in the early to mid-19th century. This book presents a series of descriptions focused on various animals, emphasizing their qualities, usefulness, and roles in human life. It reflects a didactic purpose, aiming to educate readers, particularly children, about the importance of these creatures. The content of the book consists of brief entries on different animals such as cats, dogs, cows, foxes, and others, each highlighting their characteristics and contributions to humanity. Each section combines practical observations with moral lessons, encouraging readers to reflect on behavior and virtue through the lens of animal traits. For instance, wise and helpful behaviors of animals, such as loyalty in dogs and the productivity of cows, are contrasted with negative qualities found in others, like the cunning nature of the fox. Additionally, biblical references intertwine with the animal descriptions, enriching the moral lessons intended for young readers.
