‎Odifreddi Piergiorgio‎

‎In principio era Darwin. La vita, il pensiero, il dibattito sull'evoluzionismo‎

‎br. Il 27 dicembre 1831 il brigantino Beagle salpò dall'Inghilterra con un passeggero d'eccezione, il giovane Charles Darwin, per un giro del mondo che durò cinque anni. Al suo ritorno le risultanze di quel viaggio spinsero il giovane naturalista a elaborare l'ardita teoria che le specie vegetali e animali non sono state create indipendentemente, ma sì sono evolute nel tempo grazie a una selezione naturale del più adatto nella lotta per la vita. Questa teoria minava alla radice la pretesa dell'uomo di essere stato creato "a immagine e somiglianza di Dio", e faceva invece supporre una sua discendenza da qualche progenitore comune delle grandi scimmie. Non può dunque sorprendere che il darwinismo abbia scosso i fondamenti stessi delle religioni bibliche, e generato polemiche e resistenze che dividono ancor oggi l'opinione pubblica dei non addetti ai lavori. In questo agile volume Odifreddi ripercorre le tappe salienti del pensiero di Darwin, le sue ripercussioni nella cultura moderna e le reazioni che ha scatenato di là e di qua del Tevere.‎

‎THE ELEMENTS OF DARWINISM: A Primer‎

‎London: Jarrold & Sons 1901. First printing. Near fine. First edition advance review copy of this scarce turn-of-the-century primer on Darwinism for "every day people." A popular introduction to evolution by means of natural selection for "the young person the person with little education the person who is not studious the masses in short." Influenced by renowned naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace with whom he became acquainted due to their mutual work in land nationalization projects Ogilvy turned his attention to the still widely misunderstood concept of evolution. Wallace who had already provided the introduction for Ogilvy's THE THIRD FACTOR OF PRODUCTION also reviewed the manuscript for this book. Certainly with his connection to Darwin as "a co-discoverer and friend" he was one of the best possible beta readers for such a text. <br /> <br /> Ogilvy stresses that this book was written to make the principles of Darwinism accessible to all by making the subject "simple clear and interesting" and avoiding "technicalities and dry structural details" - addressing what he felt was a general misunderstanding of Darwin's findings amongst the population he sought to reach. A contemporary review in the science journal NATURE confirms this referring to a "widespread . ignorance and misapprehension of Darwin's teaching among the general public." Another from THE EXPOSITORY TIMES praises the "blessed simplicity in Mr. Ogilvy's way of presenting the subject." <br /> <br /> Laid into this copy is a typed letter signed by the publisher sending it to a journal editor for review. OCLC locates only a handful of US holdings and only a few more elsewhere. A gorgeous copy. 7.25'' x 4.75''. Original green cloth with dark green stamped Art-Nouveau design lettered in red to front board and in gilt to spine. Pictorial endpapers. 160 pages. Single typed sheet dated 21 March 1901 and signed "Jarrold Sons" laid in. Boards with touch of wear to extremities. Faint offsetting to endpapers light foxing to edges. Crisp and tight.

‎ASTRONOMY AND GEOLOGY COMPARED‎

‎London: Published by the author printed by Spottiswoode & Co 1871. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Nobleman author's vanity binding of his ant-Darwin treatise with complimentary ALS from Darwin's publisher John Murray PM Gladstone Napoleon III Times publisher John Walter and 37 others bound-in. 8vo custom contemporary binding likely commissioned by the Baron himself in polished grey full leather gilt ruled covers front hinge recently repaired 137 pages of text followed by 41 ALS bound-in and in the rear 6 pages one-sided of a pasted-in newspaper review of the book from an unidentified publication. The review observes that Sir Walsh "found it necessary in drawing a parallel between astronomy and geology to allude to Darwin and Buckle Lord Ornathwaite makes their theories the subject of severe criticism." The ALS's bound-in are from peers and public figures variously complimenting Sir Walsh on his work many agreeing with the intellectual aspersions that Sir Walsh heaps on Darwin. Gladstone admits to not being particularly familiar with Darwin's work but posits nevertheless that evolutionary theory tears away at the "fabric of belief". But it is John Murray Darwin's own publisher who is shameless in criticizing the most famous author he will have published: "Although I happen to publish the works both of Buckle & Darwin I do not hesitate to myself a sceptic in the theories of both & I hope one day to see these fallacies exploded & should not be sorry to aid in this result." Most of the letters are on baronial estate or residential letterhead and bound-in chronologically from the end of 1871 through July 1872.
