dc.description.abstract | Many early modern writers were fascinated by the notion of the Adamic language in which
Adam named the animals, a language that many believed could express the essence of things
perfectly. Umberto Eco has displayed a recurrent interest in Adamic language in both his
scholarship and his fiction, and this article pays tribute to Eco through placing his work
in conversation with a number of scholarly fields in which the idea of Adamic language
occurs, including studies of John Milton’s Paradise Lost, the Qur’an and Islamic tradition,
the history of science, and early Mormonism. The article concludes by challenging some of
the theoretical assumptions made about Adamic language, both by Eco and in early modern
discussions, through a rereading of Adam’s speech in Genesis 2. | pl_PL |
