‎DARWIN CHARLES. RARE FIRST FINNISH TRANSLATION OF DARWIN'S 'ORIGIN OF SPECIES'‎

‎Lajien synty luonnollisen valinnan kautta eli luonnon suosimien rotujen s�ilyminen taistelussa olemassaolosta. i.e. English: "Origin of Species".‎

‎H�meenlinna Karisto 1913. Large8vo. In contemporary full cloth with red leather title label with gilt lettering to spine. Stain to upper part of spine and outer margin of front board miscoloured. Pasted down end-papers both front and back with a tear. Hindges a bit weak. Internally fine and clean. XVI 621 1 pp. frontiespiece of Darwin. � Rare first Finnish translation of Darwin's Origin of Species. The present translation was published fairly late compared to those of much of the rest of Western Europe. Finlanders had been reading a translation of the 5th London edition since 1871 in Swedish the language of academe in Finland at the time.<br><br>Up until 1913 various books in Finnish had been published on Darwin and his theory but "What was still lacking was Darwin's own book in Finnish translation although such an edition had been suggested in the Vanamo Society as much as ten years earlier. When a government fund for furthering Finnish literature was established in 1909 The Origin of Species was listed among important books that needed to be translated although it was noticed that now fifty years after its original publication it would have more historical than scientific value. For various reasons it took some time before this translation was realized and finally it was published serially between 1913 and 1917.<br>Finnish although the language of the overwhelming majority of the population had for centuries been suppressed and gained cultural status and official recognition only gradually during the latter half of the nineteenth century which of course delayed translation of both classical and contemporary literature including Darwin's works. In this respect the Finnish situation may be compared with the case of the Baltic Peoples the Czechs and the Slovaks the Hungarians the Croatians and the Serbs and some other European nations which in Darwinian times had not yet gained their independence. " Glick & Engels The Reception of Charles Darwin in Europe Vol 1 p. 144<br><br>Translator A. R. Koskimies is also known for his translations of Le Sage Jane Austen and Boccaccio. The present book was translated from the 6th London edition. <br><br>OCLC list only one copy: The Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library Toronto.

‎Manual of Geology.‎

‎London: W. Clowes and Sons 1859. 8vo. 6 6/8 x 5 inches. Original publisher's cloth-backed printed grey stiff paper wrappers RARE AND AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE COPY in near mint condition of the second separately printed issue of Darwin's contribution to the Admiralty Manual of Scientific Enquiry and first issued there as "Geology" in 1849. Edited and with an important essay on Meteorology by Sir John Frederick William Herschel 1792�1871 the aim of the Manual. in "the opinion of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty was that it would be to the honour and advantage of the Navy and conduce to the general interests of Science if new facilities and encouragement were given to the collection of information upon scientific subjects by the officers and more particularly by the medical officers of Her Majesty's Navy when upon foreign service; and their Lordships are desirous that for this purpose a Manual be compiled giving general instructions for observation and for record in various branches of science. Their Lordships do not consider it necessary that this Manual should be one of very deep and abstruse research. Its directions should not require the use of nice apparatus and instruments: they should be generally plain so that men merely of good intelligence and fair acquirement may be able to act upon them; yet in pointing out objects and methods of observation and record they might still serve as a guide to officers of high attainment: and it will be for their Lordships to consider whether some pecuniary reward or promotion may not be given to those who succeed in producing eminently useful results" Preface to the first edition in 1849. Charles Darwin completed his chapter on Geology in March of 1848 many years after the focus of his attention had turned to his theories of the transmutation and evolution of species for which his is now celebrated. Nevertheless one his earliest scientific interests was geology and one of his earliest scientific mentors was the founder of modern geology Adam Sedgwick 1785�1873. He attended Sedgwick's geology lectures in the spring of 1831 and in August accompanied Sedgwick to north Wales for two weeks in the field. "It was the best possible training. Sedgwick built up Darwin's expertise and self-confidence introducing him to some of the most perplexing geological issues of the day" DNB. Upon his return Darwin was offered the position of resident naturalist about the Beagle that was to change his life and the course of science forever. In this very rare offprint his "Manual of Geology" Darwin explains patiently the practical ways in which geology can be studied upon the high seas: "A person embarked on a naval expedition who wishes to attend to Geology is placed in a position in some respects highly advantageous and in others as much to the contrary. He is borne on the ocean from which most sedimentary formations have been deposited. During the soundings which are so frequently carried on he is excellently placed for studying the nature of the bottom and the distribution of the living organisms and dead remains strewed over it. Again on sea-shores he can watch the breakers slowly eating into the coast-cliffs and he can examine their action under various circumstances: he here sees that going on in an infinitesimally small scale which has planed down whole continents levelled mountain-ranges hollowed out great valleys and exposed over wide areas rocks which must have been formed or modified whilst heated under enormous pressure. Again as almost every active volcano is situated close to or within a few leagues of the sea he is admirably situated for investigating volcanic phenomena which in their striking aspect and simplicity are well adapted to encourage him to his studies" pages 3-4. Clearly Darwin put these methods to practical use himself during his voyage on the Beagle and with spectacular results. Adam Sedgwick read Darwin's "Geological notes made during a survey of the east and west coasts of S. America in the years 1832 1833 1834 and 1835 with an account of a transverse section of the Cordilleras of the Andes between Valparaiso and Mendoza" to the Geological Society in 1835; he read his first scientific paper "Observations of proofs of recent elevation on the coast of Chile" on January 4th 1837 as a new fellow of the Geological Society of London. He published a trilogy of books about the geology of the voyage of the Beagle: "The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs: being the first part of the Geology of the Voyage of the Beagle" London: Smith Elder 1842; "Geological Observations on the Volcanic Islands visited during the voyage of H.M.S Beagle together with some brief notices on the geology of Australia and the Cape of Good Hope. Being the second part of the Geology of the Voyage of the Beagle under the command of Capt. Fitzroy R.N. during the years 1832 to 1836" London: Smith Elder & Co. 1844; "Geological Observations on South America. Being the third part of the Geology of the Voyage of the Beagle under the command of Capt. Fitzroy R.N. during the years 1832 to 1836" London: Stewart & Murray for Smith Elder & Co. 1846.
