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.

Great story, and it's fascinating to see Darwin's diary next to the captain's.

"The same sea filled our decks so deep, that if another had followed it is not difficult to guess the result." Charles Darwin, Beagle Diary, 13 Jan 1833.

Dry laconic understatement here, beautiful in its rhythm and its trusting collusion with the reader. We can picture such a passage in Daniel Defoe or Laurence Sterne.

This afternoon we went to #DownHouse which was the residence of #CharlesDarwin. #EnglishHeritage have done a good job of restoring the house and opening it up to the public. You can see furnished parts of the house such as the study, bedrooms, drawing rooms and childrens’ and billiard rooms and so on.
