"The process by which a mimetic analogy is brought 

 about in nature is a problem which involves that of the 

 origin of all species and all adaptations." 



H. W. Bates, 1861. 



"With mimesis, above all, it is wise, when the law says 



that a thing is black, first to inquire whether it does not 



happen to be white." 



Henri Fabre.
