1847réf. 1641FIRST EDITION MAGNIFICENT SET OF THE INAUGURAL 24 VOLUMES PUBLISHED BY THE NEW PALAEONTOGRAPICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON—100 MONOGRAPHS 1000 PLATES 7000 PAGES INCLUDING SEMINAL WORKS OF CHARLES DARWIN AND RICHARD OWEN. 24 quarto volumes 8 x 11 inches later half leather gilt-lettered on spine with gilt panel lines over green textured cloth with gilt-rules green patterned endpapers each containing up to 7 monographs with lithographic or engraved plates many folding and some wood engravings in the text. The volumes appear to be unread with tight bindings that are as new and bright plates. Preliminary pages of each volume contain a perforated stamp of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh—there are no other ownership marks only rare light foxing. Very good. The Palaeontographical Society was established in 1847 and is the oldest society devoted to the study of paleontology worldwide. Its primary role is to promote the description and illustration of the British fossil flora and fauna via publication of an authoritative monograph series. The monographs were issued annually to members of the society. They cover a wide range of taxonomic groups from microfossils trilobites and ammonites through to Coal Measure plants mammals and reptiles and from all ages from Cambrian to Pleistocene. They form a benchmark for understanding the past life of the British Isles and many include the original descriptions of numerous key species. The first monograph Vol. 1 on the Crag Mollusca was published in March 1848 and the Society continues this work today. Notable authors in the series include Charles Darwin and Richard Owen both members of the Society. Darwin's interest in barnacles had first arisen in his student days in Edinburgh under the guidance of Robert Grant and increased during his detailed work in dissecting and classifying the specimens he had collected on the Beagle voyage. Darwin published his papers on fossil barnacles included in volumes 5 1851 and 8 1854 reflecting the 8 years that he devoted to the study of extinct and living barnacles establishing his credentials for formulating his theory of natural selection in The Origin of Species in 1859. In his analysis of reptilian British fossils Darwin's leading opponent Richard Owen identified unique characteristics of Megalosaurus vol. 9 Iguanodon and Hylaeosaurus vol. 10 that distinguished them from extant lizards and coined the term dinosaur "terrible lizard" in 1841. There are 22 monographs by Owen in the first 24 volumes including 16 on dinosaurs 4 on other reptiles and turtles and 2 on mammals including whales. British fossil hunter William Buckland found some fossils in 1819 and he eventually described them and named them in 1824. Like scientists before him Buckland thought the fossils belonged to an ancient larger version of a modern reptile. The first edition of a work which laid the foundation to vertebrate paleontology was Georges Cuvier's Recherches sur les ossements fossiles de quadrupèdes Researches on quadruped fossil bones published in France in 1812. In 1822 Cuvier's disciple and editor of the scientific publication Journal de physique Henri de Blainville introduced the term palaeontologie as the study of fossilized organisms—translated to the English paleontology. The word palaeontographical was coined by members of the Clay Club that established the new society whose goal was to describe and illustrate newly discovered fossils. The rapid progress in geology and paleontology during the 1830s and 1840s was aided by a growing international network of geologists and fossil specialists whose work was organized and reviewed by an increasing number of geological societies. Many of these geologists and paleontologists were now paid professionals working for universities museums and government geological surveys. The relatively high level of public support for the earth sciences was due to their cultural impact and their proven economic value in helping to exploit mineral resources such as coal. Another important factor was the development in the late 18th and early 19th centuries of museums with large natural history collections. The first 24 years of the Palaeontographical Society Monographs spans the middle of the 19th century and brackets publication of The Origin of Species in 1859. The intense activity in British paleontology at this time is reflected in the 110 monographs contained in these 24 volumes and provides a visual as well as a narrative context for the contributions of Darwin and Owen. The 27 contributing authors reveal the strong attraction of paleontology for physicians and the wide variety of species whose ancestors were pursued. These ranged from minute foraminifera to larger marine invertebrates including corals tunicates brachiopods mollusks echinoderms ammonites belemnites trilobites and eurypterids and vertebrates fish reptiles and mammals. Because photography did not become widely available until the end of the 19th century illustrations in the monographs were executed as lithographs or engravings. The most prominent London lithographers of the day were recruited to produce the dramatic plates. Many of these artists were themselves accomplished naturalists. These included Day & Son Lithographers to Queen Victoria; George Henry Ford a member of the British Museum; Michael & Nicholas Hanhart who developed a complex layering of tint stones; Charles Joseph Hullmandel author of The Art of Drawing on Stone; and the Sowerby family a British family of several generations of naturalists illustrators botanists and zoologists active from the late 18th century to the mid twentieth century. The three George Sowerbys produced major works on mollusks and their systematics including the many monographs by the Society as well as Darwin's barnacles. Notably the Sowerbys were responsible for also producing the copper plate engravings for these monographs including James De Carle Sowerby who founded the Royal Botanic Society and Gardens and was its secretary for 30 years. The Paleontographical Society Monographs are cited by Darwin in his reading notebooks.

1893Gutes Exemplar; Einband mit minimalen Läsuren; Seiten unaufgeschnitten; wenige Seiten mit Wasserspuren u. gering fleckig. - Charles Robert Darwin (* 12. Februar 1809 in Shrewsbury; † 19. April 1882 in Down House/Grafschaft Kent) war ein britischer Naturforscher. Er gilt wegen seiner wesentlichen Beiträge zur Evolutionstheorie als einer der bedeutendsten Naturwissenschaftler. Die Ende 1831 begonnene und fast fünf Jahre andauernde zweite Reise mit der HMS Beagle, die den jungen Darwin einmal um die Welt führte, war zugleich Schlüsselerlebnis und Grundlage für sein späteres Werk. Der breiten Öffentlichkeit wurde Darwin erstmals durch seinen 1839 herausgegebenen Reisebericht bekannt. Mit seiner Theorie über die Entstehung der Korallenriffe und weiteren geologischen Schriften erlangte er in wissenschaftlichen Kreisen die Anerkennung als Geologe. Seine Untersuchungen an den Rankenfußkrebsen (Cirripedia) verschafften ihm Mitte der 1850er Jahre zusätzlich einen Ruf als angesehener Zoologe und Taxonom. Bereits 1838 entwarf Darwin seine Theorie der Anpassung an den Lebensraum durch Variation und natürliche Selektion und erklärte so die phylogenetische Entwicklung aller Organismen und ihre Aufspaltung in verschiedene Arten. Über 20 Jahre lang trug er Belege für diese Theorie zusammen. … (wiki) // ... Man wird z. B. sehen, daß nach dem 8. Capitel eine Unterbrechung eintritt; die Erzählung geht von 1854 auf 1831 zurück, damit die sich auf die Entwicklungslehre beziehenden Capitel die Geschichte ununterbrochen darstellen. In gleicher Weise wird die botanische Thätigkeit, welche in dem späteren Theile seines Lebens so viel von meines Vaters Zeit in Anspruch nahm, besonders in dem 16. und 17. Capitel besprochen. Was das 4. Capitel betrifft, in welchem ich eine Schilderung der Arbeitsweise meines Vaters zu geben versucht habe, so sei mir zu erwähnen gestattet, daß ich während der letzten acht Jahre seines Lebens als sein Assistent thätig gewesen bin und ich daher Gelegenheit gehabt habe, etwas von seinen Gewohnheiten und Methoden kennen zu lernen. ...
