    Extractions: Samuel Butler (1835-1902) used his satirical tale, Erewhon , to promote of his alternative interpretation of the evolution of species, which accorded cells a will and a capacity to shape their environment and to pass acquired habits on to its progeny. Butler satirises the injustices of Victorian England by means of a utopian society in which all the social mores and laws were the exact opposite of what they were in England, just as its ideas about evolution were different.

    Extractions: (0.25 linear feet) B W15a American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street * Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Table of contents Abstract A prime exponent of evolutionary theory in the late nineteenth century, the British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace arrived independently at the theory of natural selection nearly simultaneously with Charles Darwin. The numerous publications that emerged from his extended field excusions into the Amazon Basin and the Malay Archipelago (Indonesia) Wallace resulted in major contributions to evolutionary theory, biogeography, ecology, and ethnography, and made Wallace, by the end of his life, one of the best known naturalists in Britain. A Socialist, social progressive, and Spiritualist, Wallace's distinctive take on evolutionary change differed from the Darwinian mainstream in significant ways. The Wallace Collection is a miscellaneous assemblage of letters written by and to Alfred Russel Wallace, primarily during the last twenty five years of his life. Varied in content, the letters touch on Wallace's views on evolution, Spiritualism, and to a less degree, his progressive social commitments.

Letteratura ed altre storie Nowhere /Anywhere Tornato in Inghilterra nel 1864, si stabilì a Londra a Clifford's Inn, dove visse sino alla morte, scrivendo, dipingendo e dedicandosi alla traduzione dal greco dell’Iliade e dell’Odissea. Nell'ambiente londinese, il dibattito suscitato dall'Origine ferveva vivace e Butler pensò di poter dare il proprio contributo. Inizialmente appoggiò lo scienziato inglese, ma prontamente sottolineò che le modifiche apportate dall'ambiente erano fondamentali per la trasformazione della specie. ( concetto peraltro già presente nel pensiero di Darwin . Successivamente, dopo la lettura della Filosofia zoologica di Lamarck e del libro di Jackson Mivart, Genesi della Specie , in cui era attaccata l'ipotesi della selezione, Butler si convinse che in realtà Darwin non aveva detto niente di importante, niente per lo meno che non avesse già affermato, cinquanta anni prima, Lamarck , ed espresse questa convinzione in numerosi articoli e in due saggi, Life and habit (1878) e Evolution, Old and New

    Extractions: Genre Novel Keywords AIDS Alcoholism Disease and Health Grief ... Society Summary Higgs, a sheep farmer, and Chowbok, an old man, decide one day to visit the forbidden country that lies beyond the mountains. When they find a pass through the mountains, Chowbok gets frightened and runs home, so Higgs goes on alone. After a dangerous journey, he wakes one morning surrounded by beautiful shepherdesses. They take his belongings, give him a medical exam, and throw him in jail. There he learns that he has come to Erewhon (an anagram for nowhere). In this country, illness is considered a crime. Sick people are thrown in jail; sickness is their own fault. Even sad people are imprisoned, for grief is a sign of misfortune and people are held responsible for actions that made them unfortunate. People who rob or murder, on the other hand, are treated kindly and taken to the hospital to recover. No machines are allowed in Erewhon as one philosopher thought that machines could rapidly evolve and take over the world.
