An overall nice copy. XVI 2 303 1; VII 1 361 1 pp. 1 leaf of Advertisement 2 plates A frontiespiece of Darwin and one listing the evolution of the different generations. The exceedingly rare first Hungarian translation of Darwin's "Origin of Species". Together with the Serbian and the Spanish the first Hungarian translation of the "Origin" is arguably the scarcest of all the translations of the work and very few copies of it are known. The Hungarian public was introduced to Darwinism early on when Ferenc Jánosi reviewed The Origin of Species in the Budapesti Szemle Budapest Review half a 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. Translator Dapsy László had been actively working to make Darwin and his idea known in Hungary. Through his articles he consistently presented Darwinism as a possible model for the type of progressive society that Hungary should attempt to achieve thus being one of the very earliest to apply Darwin's theories to human society and politics in general. "Dapsy's translation inspired by liberal ideals of progress increasingly became part of the conservative discourse of Hungarian politics reinterpreted and appropriated according to the nationalist agendas merging in Hungarian Society". Mund The Reception of Charles Darwin in Nineteenth-Century Hungarian Society.Prior to his translation in 1872 Dapsy wrote Darwin: "I am sorry to say that as yet here such tendencies are received with a good deal of aversion but I believe that by-and-by they will accept it and it would be a great advancement for our political life too". Dapsy to Darwin 12 June 1872. Darwin's response is not known. "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.The present book was one of four scientific works published between 1872 and 1874 by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences the others being Bernhard von Cotta's Geologie der Gegenwart 1865 Huxley's Lectures on the Elements of Comparative Anatomy 1864 and Tyndall's Heat Considered as a Mode of Motion 1863. An advertisement for these books occurs on the final leaf of vol. II.During Darwin's lifetime 'Origin' was published in eleven different languages some of them in more than one edition: The first foreign translation was the German 1860 followed by a Dutch 1860 French 1862 French 1862 Italian 1864 Russian 1864 Swedish 1869 Danish 1872 Hungarian 1873 Spanish 1877 and Serbian 1878 the last three by far being the rarest.

réf. 66330. The ship 'Beagle' is shown moored off James Island on October 17th. 1835. The topographical view is taken from the coastal sketch ordered by 2nd.Lieut. Sullivan at the time. The details of the 'Beagle' were taken from Admiralty charts and records. The artist JOHN CHANCELLOR 1925-1984 originally a merchant seaman latterly chartered his owm hydrographic survey vessel and on retirement became one of the foremost marine artists of the 20th. century. This painting of the 'Beagle' was one of his last productions - it took 500 hours of research and 750 hours at the easel is meticulous in its detail and full of atmosphere and interest. The run of 850 copies was sold out within 12 months and has been keenly sought since then. It is used on the 'Beagle Project' and the CUP 'Darwin On-Line' web-sites and is also the foundation work for the building of a replica 'Beagle'. Chancellor took considerable trouble to find the best colour printer for the work and the copy offered here is in excellent bright condition. We will of course send images on request. unknown
