‎Autograph letter signed to Fanny Kellogg‎

‎<p>One page. Original folds. Very good condition. Nicely framed.</p><p><strong>Darwin discusses the hereditary transmission of behavior and a vivid example of the phenomenon from the opening chapter of <em>The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.</em></strong></p><p>In this letter Darwin thanks Fanny Kellogg for "communicating the curious case of an habitual gesture like that which I have described as inherited. I may add that since I wrote the action has been transmitted to another generation. Your case shall be sent to Mr. Galton who gave me the information."</p><p>In <em>The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals</em> 1872 Darwin had discussed the heritability of habitual gestures. There he cited at length a remarkable case related to him by his cousin Francis Galton. Galton a distinguished scientist in his own right was keenly interested in the inheritance in humans and the two men often shared findings and theories. Darwin quoted Galton in <em>The Expression of the Emotions</em> on page 33:</p><p>"A gentleman of considerable position was found by his wife to have the curious trick when he lay fast asleep on his back in bed of raising his right arm slowly in front of his face up to his forehead and then dropping it with a jerk so that the wrist fell heavily on the bridge of his nose. The trick did not occur every night but occasionally and was independent of any ascertained cause. Sometimes it was repeated incessantly for an hour or more. The gentleman's nose was prominent and its bridge often became sore from the blows which it received. At one time an awkward sore w as produced that was long in healing on account of the recurrence night after night of the blows which first caused it. His wife had to remove the button from the wrist of his night-gown as it made severe scratches and some means were attempted of tying his arm."</p><p>Galton went on "Many years after his death his son married a lady who had never heard of the family incident. She however observed precisely the same peculiarity in her husband but his nose from not being particularly prominent has never as yet suffered from the blows. The trick does not occur when he is half-asleep as for example when dozing in his arm-chair but the moment he is fast asleep it is apt to begin …" Galton further noted that the behavior had been passed down to the son's daughter. Darwin's letter offered here reveals that he learned after the publication of <em>Expression of Emotions</em> that yet another generation has acquired the remarkable habitual behavior!</p><p>This fascinating letter demonstrates the lengths to which Darwin went gathering data and telling examples for his writings. His published books reached a wide audience producing additional correspondence with yet more evidence for his theories.</p><p>The letter is also noteworthy for being signed in full "Charles Darwin" instead of the more usual abbreviated "Ch. Darwin."</p>‎

‎Az Ember Származàsa és az Ivari Kiválás i.e. Hungarian: "The Descent of Man.". Translated by: Török Aurei és Entz Géza. 2 vols. - FIRST HUNGARIAN TRANSLATION OF DARWIN'S "THE DESCENT OF MAN"‎

‎Budapest Kiadja A. K. M. 1884. 8vo. In the publisher's original two embossed full red cloth bindings with gilt lettering to spine. Small vague stamp to both half-titles. Hindges loose on volume i. A fine fine and clean copy. LXXI 1 542 pp.; VII 5 436 pp. <br/><br/><em>The exceedingly rare first Hungarian translation of Darwin's The Descent of Man. "Compared with the original and with a biography by Margó Tivador" Freeman. The Hungarian public was introduced to Darwinism early on when Ferenc Jánosi reviewed The Origin of Species in the Budapesti Szemle Budapest Review a half year after it first appeared in English. Darwin's principal works were first published in Hungarian translation by the Royal Hungarian Natural Science Society Királyi Magyar Természettudományi Társulat. The Origin of Species translated by László Dapsy was published in 1873; The present work in 1884 and a few years later in 1897 the latter work was translated anew and published by László Seress. "It is characteristic of the enlightened spirit of the country in this period that Darwin received academic recognition earlier in Hungary than in England. Although Cambridge did not honor Darwin until 1879 he was elected an honorary member of The Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1872 the same year on this occasion the renowned Hungarian zoologist Tivadar Margó visited him at Down.Historical circumstances played a major role in this quick appearance of Darwinism and its popularity in Hungary. The failure of the 1848-49 revolution and war of independence seemingly put an end to progressive political discourse signaling an ideological crisis among the intelligentsia. In this context the natural sciences with their 'eternal truths' promised a way out inasmuch as science's promised objectivity might well serve as a politically neutral expression of progressive values" Mund The Reception of Charles Darwin in Nineteenth-Century Hungarian Society."Darwin wrote in the preface to the second edition of 'the fiery ordeal through which this book has passed'. He had avoided the logical outcome of the general theory of evolution bringing man into the scheme for twelve years and in fact it had by that time been so much accepted that the clamour of the opposition was not strident. He had also been preceded in 1863 by Huxley's Man's place in nature. The book in its first edition contains two parts the descent of man itself and selection in relation to sex. The word 'evolution' occurs for the first time in any of Darwin's works on page 2 of the first volume of the first edition that is to say before its appearance in the sixth edition of The origin of species in the following year."

Entire volume: vii 1 - 472 12 plates. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Darwin's paper on flatworms collected by him during the Beagle voyage one of the important early papers by Darwin on invertebrates originally intended for publication in The Zoology of the Voyage of HMS Beagle. This is Darwin's first publication on taxonomy: illustrated with a plate drawn by Darwin it describes a new genus and 15 new species of flatworm. Extremely rare on the market."The paper on flatworms . was Darwin's first venture into taxonomy. In it he described a new genus and 15 new species; most of the latter are still recognised as valid. He took a great deal of interest in these animals making extensive notes on their morphology and behaviour" Porter Darwin's Sciences.Previously familiar only with marine species Darwin was astounded to discover two new species of flatworm living on dry land in Brazil. He was intrigued by their close resemblance to snails and evolutionary questions may well lie behind his strong interest in them.
