The specific name is a Latin translation derived from the German phrase “Ehrfurcht vor dem Leben” (English: “the reverence for life”), in honour of the idea of Dr Albert Schweitzer (18751965) who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize (1952) because of it. The idea could be defined in the following statement by J. Brabazon: “...we are brothers and sisters to all living things, and owe to all of them the same care and respect that we wish for ourselves.” Term in apposition.
