| Summary | "Nuovi studi sul genio vol. II (Origine e natura dei genii)" by Cesare Lombroso is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work explores the origins and nature of genius, examining the variances found in different types of geniuses and the factors that influence their development. It aims to provide deeper insight into the shared characteristics among individuals renowned for their exceptional intellectual, artistic, or scientific prowess. The opening of the book delves into the foundational concepts of genius, presenting an argument that despite the observable variety among geniuses—such as in artistic versus scientific disciplines—their essential nature remains unchanged. Lombroso references notable thinkers and historical figures to illustrate how intellect and artistry intermingle, highlighting that individuals like Leonardo da Vinci excelled across multiple domains. He introduces a critique from a contemporary critic who questions the lack of explanation regarding the diverse manifestations of genius, setting the stage for a broader exploration of genetic, environmental, and psychological influences on creative expression throughout the subsequent chapters.
