Summary "Die Anfänge der Naturbeherrschung. 1. Frühformen der Mechanik" by Karl Weule is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work explores the early forms of mechanics and the relationship between mankind and nature, focusing on how humans have come to control and utilize natural forces through various mechanical innovations. The book delves into cultural and technological advancements, particularly in the context of primitive societies and the tools they developed. At the start of this work, Weule introduces the concept of culture as the domination of nature, emphasizing the technological prowess of certain races, particularly in the aftermath of the World War era. He examines how early humans operated in a pre-civilized context, relying on basic tools while also presenting commentary on social roles, particularly the division of labor between genders. Weule's approach is ethnographic and historical, exploring how primitive cultures have innovated over time to free their hands for work through various carrying and support devices, setting the stage for the subsequent exploration of mechanics used in these cultures.
