"The Criminal" by Havelock Ellis is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work serves as an overview of criminal anthropology, examining various types of criminals and their connection to both individual and societal factors. The text delves into the complexities of criminal behavior, physical attributes, and moral implications, offering insights into how society perceives and categorizes crime. The opening of the book presents an introduction to the diverse classifications of criminals, starting with the concept of the political criminal, who may be labeled as such due to oppressive governmental structures. Ellis contrasts this type with the criminal driven by passion, who reacts to personal injustices, and the insane criminal, whose actions stem from mental illness. He provides vivid examples of various criminals, including a boy who commits an unprovoked act of violence and a girl who shows a shocking lack of remorse after committing murder. Through these early chapters, Ellis sets the foundation for a deeper exploration of criminality by underscoring the need to understand the psychological and social dimensions of those who transgress societal norms.
