than have been exterminated (the fauna having substantially
gained in numerical strength), there has been a falling off in
what may be called faunistic quality. For many masterly crea-
tures have been replaced by elusive vagrants, and giants by pig-
mies. " We have, in effect, lost more than we have gained; for
how can the increase of rabbits and sparrows and earthwor
and caterpillars, and the addition of millions of rats and cock-
roaches and crickets and bugs, ever take the place of the
fine creatures round the memories of which the glamour
Scotland's past still plays the reindeer and the elk, the wolf,
the brown bear, the lynx, and the beaver, the bustard, the crane,
the bumbling bittern, and many another, lost or disappearing?"

as well as analytic. In its vivid realization of the correlation of
organisms, this " study in faunal evolution " continues the
tradition of Darwin.

Mechanism atid Vitalism. Coming finally to the " Magnolia
Naturae," and the diverse attitudes of modern zoologists to
these, as in the long controversy of mechanists and vitalists,
we cannot yet say that substantial conclusions have been reached.
The conflicts between mechanistic and vitalistic interpretations,
between the purely physiological (i.e. apsychic) and the psycho-
biological descriptions of behaviour continue with undiminished
vigour. Yet there is progress in the fact that the questions at
issue are being denned with increasing precision, (a) Everyone
allows that there is a chemistry and a physics of the organism;
that a chemical and physical (i.e. theoretically mechanical)
description can be given of much that goes on in the living body;
that the chemical and physical analysis of the animal has yielded
very important results; and that this kind of description will
certainly extend its scope, (b) It is widely though not unani-
mously held that there is little help in the hypothesis that a special
form of energy (" vital " or " biotic ") comes into operation in
organisms, and is convertible into equivalent quantities of
other forms of energy. For no one has demonstrated this specific
vital energy, much less measured its intensity. As the tendency
of science is to greater simplification of the forms of energy, we
must agree with Bayliss (1915, p. 31) that "it seems somewhat
retrograde to assume a new form of energy, especially as there
is no urgent necessity for it. The resources of the known forms
of energy are not altogether exhausted." (c) Many physiologists
occupy the position of Claude Bernard: " There is in reality only
one general physics, only one chemistry, and only one mechanics,
in which all the phenomenal manifestations of nature are included,
both those of living bodies and those of inanimate ones. In a
word, all the phenomena which make their appearance in a
living being obey the same laws as those outside of it " (La
Science Experimental, 1878, p. 116). (d) There is, however, a
growing body who hold to what may be called methodological
vitalism. Without presuming to set limits to the extent to which
chemical and physical descriptions may be given of what occurs
in a living animal, and without assuming that the concepts of
physics and chemistry are stationary (which they certainly
are not), it is urged that up to the present the chemico-physical
interpretation remains inadequate. For there has not been
given any exhaustive physico-chemical description of any total
vital operation, such as the contraction of a muscle, still less of
any complex case of animal behaviour. And as to individual
development we cannot give a mechanical description of the
condensation of the inheritance into a germ-cell, nor of the
differentiation of the embryo, nor of the regulation phenomena
observed when an embryo rights itself after the building materials
of its living edifice have been seriously disarranged, nor of the
way in which many developing parts seem to conspire toward
one result. Similarly as regards organic evolution: we cannot
offer a rriechanical theory of variability; and the process of
selection is much more than mechanical sifting. In short,
mechanical formulae do not fully suffice for answering biological
questions. Biology requires Categories of its own. (e) But
when the critic of mechanism advances beyond this, to postu-
late some further vital agency associated with the organism,
operating actively in certain cases, directing the chemico-
physical processes so that their results are different from what
they would have been apart from its intervention, he has passed
to thoroughgoing vitalism. Bergson's " elan vital " has much
of this character; but the most consistently thought out expres-
sion of this doctrine is Driesch's " Entelechy " (The Science
and Philosophy of the Organism, 2 vols. 1908). Discussions of
the problem of vitalism may be conveniently found in John-
stone's Philosophy of Biology (1914), and Thomson's System of
Animate Nature (2 vols. 1920). See also J. S. Haldane (Organ-
ism and Environment, 1917) in which he discusses the physiology
of respiration as a test case, and with suggestiveness for both
sides of the controversy.

ZUIDER (or ZUYDER) ZEE (see 28.1049). It was after the
draining of several landlocked seas and small sea-arms of the
province of North Holland had been successfully completed in
the early part of the i7th century that, about the middle of
the next century, the idea of the shutting off and draining the
entire Zuider Zee first began to be discussed. Serious objec-
tions to the initial scheme led to various proposals for the drain-
ing of parts of that sea, and eventually to a thorough investiga-
tion as to the best means of closing and draining it. This

investigation, instituted by the Zuider Zee Society in 1886,
gave rise to a scheme put forward in 1891, the execution of
which, in a modified form, was begun in 1920.

The requisite bill was introduced in 1913 and was passed
almost unanimously by both Chambers of the States-General
in 1918. There may perhaps be some cause for wonder that a
decision of such import should have been made during war-
time. The explanation is that it was just the circumstances
of those days, with the shortage of food occasioned by them,
which brought into prominence the importance of extending
the area of arable land. Moreover, people had still fresh in
their memories the severe storm of 1916, which, bursting the
Zuider Zee dykes, deluged vast districts of the country.

FIG. i.

The main features of the scheme are indicated in fig. I. They
consist of (.4) the closure and (B) the drainage. The closure is like-
wise divisible into two parts, namely, from North Holland to the
Isle of Wieringen and from that island to Friesland. The combined
length of the enclosing dams or barrages is nearly 19 miles. With
the completion of the dams 850,000 ac. of the Zuider Zee will be
shut off from the North Sea, thus creating a large lake. The dams
will afford full protection to the coasts of the provinces bordering
on the Zuider Zee for a distance of 152 miles. In the dam sluices



will be required to carry off the surplus of water from the enclosed
Zuider Zee, and the quantity may at times be very great, since it
will include the afflux of the Yssel, an arm of the Rhine. It is there-
fore deemed necessary to have no fewer than 30 sluices, 33 ft. wide
and 13-2 ft. deep. As soon as the closure is complete various parts
of the Zuider Zee can be successively dammed and drained. Four
inner enclosures (B) are contemplated, corresponding to the char-
acter of the sea-bottom and other factors.

After deducting the dimensions of dykes, canals, and roads the
enclosures will provide 500,000 ac. of land, an area equivalent to
that of the cultivated districts of North Holland or of Groningen
with a surface analogous in composition to the best clay soil to be
found in the country. The remainder of the Zuider Zee bottom con-
sists chiefly of sand, and will, consequently, not be reclaimed. The
water covering this area is shown in the sketch under the name of
Ysselmeer. Its size is about 580 sq. m., which is thrice that of the
lakes of Geneva or of Constance. It will constitute a receptacle
for the waters of the Yssel and some smaller rivers, and will dis-
charge them through the sluices into the open-sea during ebb tide.
As a reservoir of fresh water this Ysselmeer will be able to supply
the canals of the surrounding provinces in periods of drought.

The Zuider Zee project has thus a double purpose: in the first
place the reclamation from the sea of new fertile provinces; secondly,
the security from the encroachments of the sea and the supply of
fresh water to the neighbouring provinces. In the initial stages of
the work heavy clay was dredged out of the open sea and deposited
along the track to be followed by the dam. The cost of the under-
taking was calculated in 1914 at about 19,000,000, but it seemed
likely in 1921 to be very much more. Ten years were allowed for
the construction of the main dam and another 20 years for the
completion of the four inner enclosures.

mation scheme; Maandberichten betrejfende de Zuyderzeewerkens

ZULOAGA, IGNACIO (1870- ), Spanish painter (see 28.1049),
had become by 1921 the head of a definite school of Basque
and Castilian painters, whose work was marked by a realistic
and decorative treatment of contemporary Spanish life, con-
sciously based on Velazquez, El Greco and Goya. His art
showed increasing emphasis on silhouette, simplification of
form and use of broad masses of sombre colour relieved by
splashes of more vivid tints. In his figure compositions a low
horizon and a panoramic background were favourite devices
for obtaining a decorative monumental effect. Women and
the nude figure played an important part in Zuloaga's work.
In his portraits, of which typical examples are " Lucienne
Breval in Carmen," " Cousin Candida," " The Duke of Alba,"
and " Countess Mathieu de Noailles," emphasis is on the type
rather than the individual, and the combination of realism and
simplification tends towards caricature. This also appears in
his genre paintings of Spanish types, peasants, dancers, bull-
fighters, priests and beggars, such as " Old Castile," " The
Bottleseller " and " The Witches of San Millan." His land-
scapes, mainly painted round Burgos, Salamanca and Segovia,
have a similar bizarre, fantastic quality. His later work in-
cludes " My Uncle Daniel and his Family " (1912), " A Cardi-
nal" (1914), "Toreadors" (1914), " Un Versolari " (1916).
An important retrospective exhibition of his work was seen at
the 1919 International Exhibition at Bilbao, and he was repre-
sented by three portraits in the 1920-1 Exhibition of Spanish
Paintings at Burlington House.

INDEX

The Index to the New Volumes XXX., XXXI. and XXXII. of the Encyclopedia Britannica, has been pre-
J pared on the same system as that used in Volume XXIX. Every Index has its own principles and its own
[conventions. Those adopted for Volumes I. to XXVIII. need not here be recapitulated; they are sufficiently
1 explained in the preface to Volume XXTX. and in the Rules and Abbreviations which follow it. It is only
[necessary to add that in this supplementary Index the volume number is not repeated before successive
[references from the same volume, and that measures have been taken to avoid difficulties arising from variant
[spellings which have different initial letters, of Arabic and Slavonic names. All abbreviations used in this
I supplementary Index are explained in the Key beginning on page xv. of Volume XXX.
