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.

Frances Julia "Snow" Wedgewood's article "The Natural and the Supernatural" (1871) for the Spectator comparing Lucretius and Darwin's theory using portions of this translation can be found here: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015038698000&seq=558&view=2up

Hmmm, no book reviews in August. Do you still have a pulse?

Yes, dear readers, I might have mentioned that once I get my teeth stuck in Darwin's Descent of Man, they would remain firmly lodged there. Here is a progress shot as I am grinding my way through over 700 pages of Victorian English and effectively a separate book of dense annotations. No shortcuts here, just reading books cover to cover before writing a review, so I beg your patience.

And those books on the left? I am settling in for a deep dive into this topic.
