In dealing with Darwinism
The theories of Charles Darwin on natural selection first published in 1859. Although his theory of the scientific community had already submitted in July last year. Aware of the work of Alfred Russel Wallace, English naturalist and contemporary of Darwin, who had come to very similar conclusions about the evolution of organisms by natural selection, Darwin presented a joint paper on this subject in collaboration withWallace at the Linnean Society of London. The two had natural differences, for example, Wallace believed that the environment plays an important role in shaping the process of natural selection while Darwin focuses more on competition between species and between individuals of this species, as the driving force natural selection.
The 'Origin of Species ", or give title to the whole book," The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of FavouredRaces in the struggle for life, "the Victorians never been particularly well as a short, just read Dickens, for example, was a sensation when published. Darwin's theories of how species develop and change, creating a storm of new ways controversy. This storm has subsided since then. but the ideas and concepts expressed so eloquently in the 1859 version is now a cornerstone of scientific thought. His observations and research on the relationship betweenspecies (existing) and fossil (extinct animals and plants), led him to hypothesize that the species has been developed through a process, this process was later called natural selection.
The Voyage of the Beagle
It 's interesting to ask whether Darwin would have reached the same conclusions when he had the opportunity to survey expedition under the command of Captain Robert Fitz Roy and navigate the Beagle led to participate in distant countries. Without a visit toGalapagos is the opportunity to study the wilderness of South America or the land of Tahiti, Australia and New Zealand, has watched his theories have thought? And 'likely that some other Victorian naturalists would be a theory in relation to the diversity of life and the struggle to survive and reproduce in the highly competitive world of nature was postulated. Perhaps the 2023 AD would be special events and ceremonies saw the 200th anniversary of the birth of Alfred Russel Wallace Brandcertainly the history of the Galapagos and our perception that the archipelago would be very different.
In the autumn of 1831 HMS Beagle was preparing England for the South American coast sailing, walking on the map of the coast and around the world about Australia colony. Along with many British survey ship of the time, was going to take a naturalist who observed natural phenomena on track and contribute to the scientific mission. For the youngCaptain Fitz Roy, was a different, perhaps more pressing reason why a man should naturalist to accompany the ship as a planned visit at least two years. The former commander of the Beagle had committed suicide in a previous scientific mission to America.
Captain Fitz Roy to hope that the scientists would research help, but as a companion and friend to act on the long sea voyage. Darwin's time, had graduated last in his divinity, according to the studyUniversity of Cambridge. However, studies of pastoral allowed him to combine his work with his passion for the natural world. Darwin on the Beagle voyage was recommended, and how well connected and wealthy family, Darwin was able to finance its place on the ship. It was not really a staff Admiralty.
Darwin Travel
Darwin left the Beagle in December 1831 he was returning to England five years later. Until 1837 he was busy writing onhis extensive notes, and where some of the strange things he had seen in the context of transmutation - explain the concept of popular scientific professions at the moment as the last type and developed. His work, entitled "Journal of Researches", was to be the third and final volume of the official account of Captain Fitz Roy's shipment. This was printed in 1839 and years to come, as several editions were published and made editions of Darwin refined hisIdeas and bold speculations on the origin of species. to give, for example, the second edition, its full title "Journal of research on natural history and geology of the countries visited during the voyage of HMS Beagle around the world under the command of Captain Fitz Roy RN" - see I told in Victorian times could not be concise and contains references to some of Darwin's conclusions about the natural world.
Although we can now, these earlier works with a degree of reviewHindsight aware of what will later be printed the name of Charles Darwin, you can find some of the players thoughts and ideas, write him on his work after 1859
The second edition, which is about 460 pages, his work on the flora and fauna of the Galapagos earns just 30 pages, but Darwin's account of his stay on these islands and its observations of other adventures, the germ of his great ideas have seen theirto start.
