1872réf. 53225Torino Tipografico-Editrice Torinese 1872. Large8vo. In publisher's original full green cloth. Embossed title with gilt lettering to spine and front board. Corners of binding bumped and lower part of back hindge with a small tear. An overall very fine and clean copy. 2 464 pp. First Italian translation of Darwin's Journal of researches now known as Voyage of the Beagle being his first published book. As Darwin later recalled in his autobiography 'The voyage of the Beagle has been by far the most important event in my life and has determined my whole career'. "On its first appearance in its own right also in 1839 it was called Journal of researches into the geology and natural history etc. The second edition of 1845 transposes 'geology' and 'natural history' to read Journal of researches into the natural history and geology etc. and the spine title is Naturalist's voyage. The final definitive text of 1860 has the same wording on the title page but the spine readsNaturalist's voyage round the world and the fourteenth thousand of 1879 places A naturalist's voyage on the title page. The voyage of the Beagle first appears as a title in the Harmsworth Library edition of 1905. It is a bad title: she was only a floating home for Darwin on which in spite of good companionship he was cramped and miserably sea-sick; whilst the book is almost entirely about his expeditions on land." FreemanThe first edition appeared in German in 1844 at the instigation of Baron von Humboldt and the second in Danish French German Italian Russian and Swedish in Darwin's lifetimeFreeman 211 hardcover

All in all an attractive and appealing set in entirely original unsophisticated condition. Housed in a bespoke quarter morocco solander case. The first edition of the first full-length exposition of an evolutionary theory in English and the most important precursor to Darwin's 'On the Origin of Species'. "This outspoken statement of a belief in evolution published anonymously to protect Chambers' reputation as a publisher anticipated Darwin's Origin by 16 years Garrison and Morton p.218. Bringing "together a large variety of data from both geology and the life sciences to support the idea of the origin of species through a process of transmutation. It played a significant role in the history of mid-nineteenth century biology by making evolutionism a commonplace topic of discussion" becoming a sensational best-seller read widely by the intellectual and cultural elite thus easing the way for Darwin's own writings Norman. Notably the work also contains what is probably the first discussion of computing within the context of biology with Chambers demonstrating "that evolutionary change occurring over long periods of time could be seen as similar to the workings of Babbage's Difference Engine programmed from the beginning of its operation to produce in sequence several different series of numbers according to a succession of mathematical rules". Vestiges in fact served to significantly aid public understanding of Babbage's work with his ideas receiving "a much wider circulation through Chamber's text than through the two editions of the "Ninth Bridgewater Treatise" Hook et al. Origins of Cyberspace p.147. The October 1844 first edition of Vestiges consisted of 750 copies with a second edition of 1000 copies quickly following in December. The book was constantly revised with Chambers refining arguments addressing criticism and reacting to new scientific publications. Late in 1845 largely in response to Adam Sedgwick's review of the work in the Edinburgh Review Chamber's wrote "Explanations: A Sequel to Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation" consisting of 1500 copies and which was subsequently appended to later editions DSB III:192. The 11th edition of 1860 included a three page discussion of Darwin's recently published Origin a book which according to historian James A. Secord Vestiges outsold up until the early twentieth century. It was not until the 12th edition of 1884 in the preface written by his friend Alexander Ireland that Robert Chambers was revealed to have written Vestiges ending several decades of public speculation that had named everyone from Prince Albert to Darwin himself as the potential author.
