Book excerpt: Today, Philip Henry Gosse is remembered, if at all, as the patriarch and tyrannical religious maniac in his son Edmund's memoir, Father and Son. This is a vivid reassessment of the life of Philip Henry Gosse, the renowned Victorian naturalist, author, illustrator and Christian fundamentalist, who as both friend and antagonist of Charles Darwin, was at the very heart of the Victorian conflict between science and religion. Thwaite shows that Gosse believed that "the gratification of scientific curiosity is worse than useless if we ignore God."--Publisher.

Book excerpt: "Father and Son: A Study of Two Temperaments" is an autobiographical work by English author Edmund Gosse, first published in 1907. The book is a unique exploration of the complex relationship between Gosse and his father, Philip Henry Gosse, a renowned naturalist and marine biologist. The narrative is structured as a memoir and provides a deep and introspective look into the dynamics of the Gosse family. Edmund Gosse, who grew up in a strict, evangelical household, recounts his experiences of navigating the contrasting worlds of his father's religious fervor and his own emerging literary and intellectual interests. One of the central conflicts in the book revolves around the clash between science and religion. Philip Henry Gosse was a devout Christian who held strict religious beliefs, while his son Edmund was drawn to the world of literature, art, and secular thought. The tension between these two worldviews becomes a prominent theme in "Father and Son." Edmund Gosse's portrayal of his father is both affectionate and critical. The book delves into the challenges faced by a son who, while deeply respecting his father, must find his own path in a world that is rapidly changing. "Father and Son" is not only a personal narrative but also a cultural and historical document that reflects the intellectual and religious currents of the Victorian era. The book is celebrated for its candid exploration of the complexities of familial relationships, the struggle for individual identity, and the broader societal shifts occurring in the late 19th century. Edmund Gosse's skillful blending of personal and intellectual reflections makes "Father and Son" a compelling and influential work in the genre of autobiographical literature. It remains a classic for its exploration of the interplay between tradition and modernity, science and faith, and the bonds that tie generations together.

Excerpt: ... regarding that important day on which he landed in the new country of his adoption, I find these words and no others: -- "July 15.--As I this day arrived at Quebec, I pro"cured some lettuce for my caterpillars, which they ate "greedily." The voyage from Harbour Grace to Quebec, a comparatively short distance on the map, proved an intolerably tedious one, from lack of wind. In the St. Lawrence the strong ebb tide continually carried them back during the night, running down with such force that it was impossible to stem it without a strong breeze up. The only resource was to cast anchor during the ebb and take advantage of the flood tide, which runs upward five hours in every twelve. They suffered from want of fresh food, and it was annoying to their appetites to pass close to little wooded islands stocked with ostentatious rabbits, and have no chance of rabbit-pie. On the nineteenth day they landed for ten minutes on Grosse Island, where the quarantine establishment was, and this was an agreeable refreshment. At length their impatience was rewarded, and they penetrated to the very heart of that land of promise from which they anticipated so much. They saw it in a golden light, and in these words, which betray his enthusiasm, Philip Gosse described his approach in a letter home: -- "On Wednesday last, as we were favoured with a fair "wind, we weighed and set sail very early, proceeding "along the fertile and well-cultivated Isle of Orleans, "which, as well as the south bank of the river, was "smiling in luxuriance and loveliness. When we had "passed the end of Orleans we opened the noble "Cataract of Montmorenci, a vast volume of foaming "waters rushing over a cliff of immense height. We "now came in sight of the city of Quebec, which being...
