  2. Missionen im Tempel des Zerfalls – Von Regina Oehler

    Das Feature erkundet mit dem jungen Theologen Charles Darwin die an der äußersten Spitze Südamerikas gelegene Inselgruppe Feuerland. Seine dort im Jahr 1831 gemachten Erfahrungen und gewonnenen Erkenntnisse haben unser Weltbild, unsere Vorstellungen vom Leben und von der Natur nachhaltig verändert.

    When I found your old post on earthworms the other day, I liked it for the poetry but I wasn't thinking much about biology. I've since remembered Charles Darwin's voice on the matter.

    You probably already know about his book on the earthworm? It's Darwin's last book, published in 1881. One way or the other, it's a treasure.
