superior speed, the fox points out that its own slyness has been a better means of survival. The author sums up by saying that intelligence is the better quality. The question has remained open and the different behaviours have been reinterpreted in other ways since. In his essay "The Hedgehog and the Fox", originally written in 1953, the philosopher Isaiah Berlin uses the fable as summed up by Archilochus to divide writers and thinkers into two categories: hedgehogs, who view the world through the lens of a single defining idea

The Fox, the Flies and the Hedgehog


The fable of the fox, the flies and the hedgehog is ascribed to Aesop’s Fables. From its beginning it was applied satirically to political leaders and is numbered 427 in the Perry Index. An enfeebled fox is plagued by flies, ticks or mosquitoes, of which a hedgehog offers to rid her. The fox refuses such help on the grounds that the insects have already gorged themselves on her blood and hardly trouble her now, but they would inevitably be succeeded by new swarms if removed. The fable is mentioned by Aristotle

Tolstoy, "a fox by nature, but a hedgehog by conviction", with the Austrian-born philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, who was "by nature a hedgehog, but after 1929 transformed himself, by great intellectual and imaginative endeavour, into a paradigmatic fox". In his 2012 "The New York Times" bestselling book, "The Signal and the Noise", forecaster Nate Silver urges readers to be "more foxy" after summarising Berlin's distinction. He cites the work of Philip E. Tetlock on the accuracy of

The Hedgehog and the Fox


The Hedgehog and the Fox is an essay by philosopher Isaiah Berlin—one of his most popular essays with the general public—which was published as a book in 1953. However, Berlin said, "I never meant it very seriously. I meant it as a kind of enjoyable intellectual game, but it was taken seriously. Every classification throws light on something". The title is a reference to a fragment attributed to the Ancient Greek poet Archilochus: ("a fox knows many things, but a hedgehog one important

However, although the ribbon sculptures relate to Serra's "Torqued Ellipse" series of this period, their openness also contrasts with the small private spaces carved out of the large public sites where the sculptures of that series are installed. The title of "The Hedgehog and the Fox" refers to an essay of that name by Isaiah Berlin, where he quotes a line from the Greek poet Archilochus: "The fox knows many things but the hedgehog knows one great thing." Serra has explained that "It points to

Conceptual framework


A conceptual framework is an analytical tool with several variations and contexts. It can be applied in different categories of work where an overall picture is needed. It is used to make conceptual distinctions and organize ideas. Strong conceptual frameworks capture something real and do this in a way that is easy to remember and apply. Isaiah Berlin used the metaphor of a "fox" and a "hedgehog" to make conceptual distinctions in how important philosophers and authors view the world. Berlin describes hedgehogs as those who use a single idea or

The Hedgehog, the Fox, and the Magister's Pox


The Hedgehog, the Fox, and the Magister's Pox (2003) is Stephen Jay Gould's posthumous volume exploring the historically complex relationship between the sciences and the humanities in a scholarly discourse. Employing the Greek proverb about the crafty cunning fox that devises many strategies versus the persistent hedgehog who knows one effective strategy, Gould offers a study of the division between the two ways of knowing, attempting to debunk the commonly assumed inextricable conflict between science and the arts as the two falsely opposed realms of the pursuit of knowledge.

Hardy and Aileen Kelly. The essay also appears in a widely-representative anthology of Berlin's essays, "The Proper Study of Mankind". Some authors (Michael Walzer, for example) have used the same pattern of description for Berlin himself, as a person who knows many things, compared to the purported narrowness of many other contemporary political philosophers. Berlin's former student, Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor, has been dubbed a hedgehog by Berlin and readily admitted to it in an interview after receiving the 2007 Templeton Prize.

this strategy depends on the number of spines, some desert hedgehogs that evolved to carry less weight are more likely to flee or attack, ramming an intruder with the spines; rolling into a spiny ball for those species is a last resort. The various species are prey to different predators: while forest hedgehogs are prey primarily to birds (especially owls) and ferrets, smaller species like the long-eared hedgehog are prey to foxes, wolves, and mongooses. Hedgehogs are primarily nocturnal, though some species can also be active

The "Sonic the Hedgehog" video game franchise began in 1991 with the game "Sonic the Hedgehog" for the Sega Genesis, which pitted a blue anthropomorphic hedgehog named Sonic against a rotund male human villain named Doctor Eggman (or Doctor Ivo Robotnik). The sequel, "Sonic 2", gave Sonic a fox friend named Tails. Shortly afterward, "Sonic CD" introduced Amy Rose, a female hedgehog with a persistent crush on Sonic, and "Sonic 3" introduced Knuckles the Echidna, Sonic's rival and

"It seems to be that one of the basic functions of art is to enable us to acknowledge thought and perception in ways that other things do not.

Berlin expands upon this idea to divide writers and thinkers into two categories: hedgehogs, who view the world through the lens of a single defining idea (examples given include Plato, Lucretius, Dante Alighieri, Blaise Pascal, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Friedrich Nietzsche, Henrik Ibsen,

Berlin goes on to use this idea of Tolstoy as a basis for an analysis of the theory of history that Tolstoy presents in his novel "War and Peace". In the latter half of the essay, Berlin illuminates Tolstoy by an extended comparison between him and the early 19th-century thinker Joseph de Maistre, a comparison that gains in piquancy because while Tolstoy and de

Maistre held violently contrasting views on more superficial matters, they held some profoundly similar views about the fundamental nature of existence and the limits of a rational, scientific approach to it. In the final few paragraphs of the essay, Berlin reasserts his thesis that Tolstoy was by nature a fox but by conviction a hedgehog and goes on to say that the division within himself caused him great pain at the end of his life. The essay has been published separately and as part of the collection "Russian Thinkers", edited by Henry

Origin of Evil." One of Hoeckner's key insights is that the historiography of Wagner's antisemitism, much like that of the Holocaust, has two main branches: a hedgehog-like functionalist branch that sees the composer's polemic jabs at Jewish culture as mere assimilationist rhetoric, and a fox-like intentionalist branch that sees them instead as violent expressions of genuinely eliminationist "Judenhass". In his book "Wittgenstein's Place in Twentieth-Century Analytic Philosophy", Oxford philosopher Peter Hacker uses this metaphor to contrast Berlin's

There is a proverb in a fragment attributed to the ancient Greek poet Archilochus: (the fox knows many little things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing). In Erasmus' "Adagia" from 1500, the expression is recorded as "Multa novit vulpes, verum echinus unum magnum". This proverb seems to imply the existence of an ancient fable involving a hedgehog instead of a cat, as do some folktales from the Balkans.

Harold Foster, a professor in Princeton's art and archaeology department, has further commented upon it that "There are those who follow one principle in all they do — the hedgehogs — and those who look to different approaches at the same time — the foxes.

Hedgehogs in culture


Hedgehogs have appeared widely in popular and folk culture. As animals native to Europe and Africa, hedgehogs hold a place in European folklore. In most European countries, hedgehogs are believed to be a hard-working no-nonsense animal. This partially results from the folk belief that hedgehogs collect apples and mushrooms and carry them to their secret storage. It is unclear exactly how old this belief is, though the Roman author Pliny the Elder mentions hedgehogs gathering grapes by this method in his "Naturalis Historia". In medieval bestiaries

main difference from the version of the fable with a hedgehog is that the contrast in the ancient version is between flight and defence rather than between strategies of flight, as in the cat and fox version. In early Renaissance times, the writer Laurentius Abstemius questioned whether the cat's instinctive solution is ultimately better than the fox's ingenuity by rewriting the fable as "De lepore sese vulpi praeferente ob pedum velocitatem" (a hare preferring itself to the fox on account of its fleetness).

decides to climb a tree, but the fox thinks of many ways without acting and is caught by the hounds. Many morals have been drawn from the fable's presentations through history and, as Isaiah Berlin's use of it in his essay "The Hedgehog and the Fox" shows, it continues to be interpreted anew. The fable and its variants is a story of world-wide popularity which contrasts the fate of one animal proud of the many tricks at its disposal with another with just one simple trick. In time

; and foxes, who draw on a wide variety of experiences and for whom the world cannot be boiled down to a single idea. The essay, though not meant too seriously by Berlin, has proved influential, with a number of writers using his distinction. Stephen Jay Gould's anthology "The Hedgehog, the Fox, and the Magister's Pox" uses both Berlin's book and the fable in exploring the complex relationship between the sciences and the humanities. Gould sees Archilochus's original image as containing two levels of

Illustrations of the fable have consequently depicted the gullible audience surrounding the frog as it takes its stance on the edge of the marsh, generally with the fox sitting off to one side. In Heinrich Steinhöwel’s edition (1478) the listeners include nothing more exotic than a rat, a rabbit and a hedgehog, but Henry Walker Herrick (1869) and Ernest Griset (1874) furnish a more varied menagerie. Francis Barlow concentrates largely on an audience of domestic

Many genes encoding FOX proteins have been identified. For example, the FOXF2 gene encodes "forkhead box F2", one of many human homologues of the "Drosophila melanogaster" transcription factor forkhead. FOXF2 is expressed in lung and placenta. Some FOX genes are downstream targets of the hedgehog signaling pathway, which plays a role in the development of

In general, the hedgehogs were much less accurate.

Another powerful influence was the San Francisco shipyard where his father worked as a pipe-fitter.

The poem describes a moment when the speaker accidentally killed a hedgehog with his lawn mower while mowing his lawn. Author Maeve Brennan recalled an earlier incident in which Larkin had deliberately killed a hedgehog with his car, and his guilt about it. She linked that incident with the later poem.
