‎DARWIN, Charles‎

‎Geological observations on the volcanic islands and parts of South America; Geological observations on South America. Being the third part of the geology of the voyage of the Beagle‎

‎London: Smith Elder and Co 1846. I: First edition. Includes a description of six species of corals from the Palaeozoic formation of Van Diemen’s Land by W. Lonsdale. “Darwin’s published work during this period secured his position as one of Britain’s foremost naturalists. His study of the volcanic islands visited during the Beagle <br /> voyage was based on a wide range of rock and mineral specimens including his own and considerable research into contemporary theories of volcanic activity mountain formation and the elevation of extensive tracts of land relative to the sea†Correspondence Vol. 3 p. 331.<br /> II: First edition. When Darwin sailed on the Beagle he had with him the first volume of Lyell’s Principles of geology which advanced a gradualist theory of geological evolution through elevation subsidence and erosion over an immense period of time contrary to the dominant catastrophist theory of sudden upheaval. Darwin was able to interpret the geology of South America according to Lyell’s principles and his book offered the first adequate geological investigation of the continent. His “demonstration of the origin of metamorphic rocks by deformation and of the distinction between cleavage and sedimentary bedding was a major contribution to geology†DSB. He also worked out an accurate model for fossil formation from which he demonstrated the erratic and incomplete nature of the fossil record.<br /> Freeman 272; 273. Smith, Elder and Co unknown‎

IX 1 435 pp. <br/><br/><em>The rare first Dutch translation of Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man published the year after the original. The Expression of the Emotions "is an important member of the evolutionary set and it was written in part at least as a confutation of the idea that the facial muscles of expression in man were a special endowment." Freeman p. 142. Darwin concluded that "the chief expressive actions exhibited by man and by the lower animals are now innate or inherited."Freeman 1182. </em> hardcover‎

"While at the University of Cambridge the student Charles Darwin became an enthusiastic insect collector. He sent Stephens records of the rarer insects he had captured and was delighted when Illustrations of British entomology gave him credit for capturing insects described in 33 entries quoting his words in all but two of the cases. Darwin recalled in his autobiography "No poet ever felt more delight at seeing his first poem published than I did at seeing in Stephen's Illustrations of British Insects the magic words 'captured by C. Darwin Esq.'" though the closest wording as published actually appeared slightly differently as "captured by the Rev. F. W. Hope and C. Darwin Esq. in North Wales" and "Taken in North Wales by C. Darwin Esq." – Wikip. / The exquisite plates are colored by hand after drawings by Charles M. Curtis 1795-1839 and John Obadiah Westwood 1905-1893 who was among the first entomologists with an academic position at Oxford University. Although he worked on insect classification and diversity for more than sixty years from the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species he never accepted the ideas on evolution. / James Francis Stephens was an English entomologist and naturalist. He was elected fellow of the Linnean Society on 17 February 1815 and of the Zoological Society of London in 1826. From 1815 to 1825 he took a great interest in ornithology and contributed to the work of George Shaw 1751-1813. He was granted leave from office to assist William Elford Leach in 1818 to arrange the insect collection at the British Museum and eventually described as many as 2800 British insect species. In 1833 he was founder of what became the Royal Entomological Society of London. Stephens made a large insect collection that included many specimens. After his death the insect collection was purchased by the British Museum. PROVENANCE: Bruce Lowther 1926-1999 Collection c/o J.T. Barnes 503 Royal Trust Building Victoria B.C.
