David Arthur Adams - It is a fact that Tarzan's personality changes through the various stages of his life. So do ours. I see Tarzan in the first stages of his life as a human discovering himself and rising above the beast. Then the jungle lord becomes the family man from The Beasts Of Tarzan through Tarzan And The Ant Men. This Tarzan is desperately trying to adapt to civilization, for Jane and Jack's sake no doubt, in its many forms. The ape-man does a lot of traveling and is exposed to many kinds of lifestyles. You bet he found it confusing.
The Eternal Lover offers two very important contributions you did not touch upon.
- Edgar Rice Burroughs, the author, provides us with an actual date, early spring 1913, which allows us to pinpoint the occurring events.
- We are informed that Edgar Rice Burroughs, the narrator, who is John Carter's great-nephew, not the author from Chicago, is at the Tarzan ranch.
