Out Of Africa

So when and where in human evolutionary history do we see the earliest evidence of creatures that are more like modern humans? ‘Pre-modern Homo’ considers the species that many hominins researchers are comfortable with recognizing as members of the genus Homo. It looks at the earliest fossil evidence of pre-modern Homo from Africa, and then follows Homo as it moves out of Africa into the rest of the Old World. It begins with Homo ergaster, dated to around 2 mya, and then moves on to Homo erectus, which was found in sites in Africa, China, and Indonesia. Other pre-modern Homo species include Homo heidelbergensis; Homo naledi; Homo floresiensis; and Homo neanderthalensis.

In recent years, non-human primates have become indispensable as experimental animals in many fields of biomedical research. Pharmaceutical and related industries alone use about 2000,000 primates a year. Respiratory mite infestations in lungs of old world monkeys are of particular concern because the resulting tissue damage can directly effect experimental results, especially in those studies involving the cardiopulmonary system. There has been increasing documentation of primate parasitology in the past twenty years.

Self Sufficiency

Utopia as a concept points towards a world essentially alien to us. Utopia as a work describes this otherness and confronts us with a world whose strangeness might seem disturbing. Utopia and Europe differ in their relationship to what is other (Latin alienus) – that is, that which belongs to someone else, that which is foreign, that which is strange. These two worlds are at odds in regards to their foreign policy and way of life: Utopia aspires to self-sufficiency but remains open to whatever good may arrive from beyond its borders, while the Old World appears alienated by exteriority yet refuses to welcome any kind of otherness. This issue also plays a major part in the reception of More’s work. Book I invites the reader to distance himself from a European point of view in order to consider what is culturally strange not as logically absurd but merely as geographically remote. Utopia still makes room for some exoticism, but mostly in its paratexts, and this exoticism needs to be deciphered. All in all, Utopia may invite us to transcend the horizontal dialectics of worldly alterity in order to open our eyes to a more radical, metaphysical otherness.
