Excerpt: In the portrait of the Feegeean you will expect something frightfully hideous,?knowing, as you already do, that he is an eater of human flesh,?a man of gigantic stature, swarthy skin, bloodshot eyes, gaunt, bony jaws, and terrific aspect. You will expect this man to be described as being naked,?or only with the skin of a wild beast upon his shoulders,?building no house, manufacturing no household or other utensils, and armed with a huge knotted club, which he is ever ready to use:?a man who dwells in a cavern, sleeps indifferently in 11the open air or under the shelter of a bush; in short, a true savage. That is the sort of creature you expect me to describe, and I confess that just such a physical aspect?just such a condition of personal hideousness?would be exactly in keeping with the moral deformity of the Feegeean. You would furthermore expect this savage to be almost devoid of intellectual power,?altogether wanting in moral sense,?without knowledge of right and wrong,?without knowledge of any kind,?without ideas. It seems but natural you should look for such characteristics in a cannibal.?
