has persisted regarding the unicorn's existence. In the book, Amoreux delves into various historical sources, both ancient and modern, that discuss the unicorn, critiquing the validity of these accounts. He argues that despite numerous mentions of the unicorn by writers like Pliny and Aristotle, substantial evidence supporting its existence remains absent. Amoreux also reflects on the role of fables and the human inclination towards the fantastic, suggesting that instead of being a genuine creature, the unicorn is a cultural symbol molded over centuries through literature and art. Ultimately, he posits that the idea of the unicorn may be driven more by imagination and allegory than by the reality of an actual creature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
