Pasteur "A developing science depended on The Natural History of Man a work that was found to possess the functional capacity of extending the boundaries of knowledge. 'Buffon enlarged all the questions he touched on furthermore he created new questions' Flourens 1850:155. As soon as the 'varieties' and therefore the variations in man became the central issue to be elucidated the analysis of the biological and sociological mechanisms responsible for creating racial differences became more diversified. A discipline was thus created one that would rapidly differentiate between its objects of inquiry and its techniques of inquiry. It can be seen then that without any kind of break the Buffonian ideology of man retrospectively discovered a scholarly solution in what Thomas Kuhn called a 'disciplinary matrix' a hard kernel of statements principles deductive links and exemplary cases that allowed work on proofs to proceed within a framework of cumulative knowledge. At the origin of this process of'crystallization' there was neither the stroke of intuitive genius of a solitary scientist nor a 'great idea' divorced from its social pre-text. Instead there is a complex process whose contextual and biographical foundations as well as future academic and nationalistic issues are revealed by epistemological analysis."

Initially he combined a career in finance with one in science translating important works by Hales and Newton into French. In 1739 Buffon became director of the Jardin du Roi later the Jardin des Plantes and the Histoire naturelle may have originated as a description of the royal collection. It appeared from 1749 to 1804 and eventually comprised 44 volumes. Buffon was assisted among others by the anatomist Louis Daubenton and the final volumes were completed after his death under the direction of Comte de Lacépède.From the Stedelijk Gymnasium Bibliotheek with its stamp on title-pages and a few flyleaves.

Georges-Louis Leclerc Comte de Buffon September 7 1707 -- April 16 1788 was a French naturalist mathematician biologist cosmologist and author. Buffon's views influenced the next two generations of naturalists including Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and Charles Darwin. Darwin himself in his foreword to the 6th edition of the Origin of Species credited Aristotle with foreshadowing the concept of natural selection and stated that "the first author who in modern times has treated it in a scientific spirit was Buffon". Buffon is best remembered for his great work Histoire naturelle générale et particulière 1749-1788: in 36 volumes 8 additional volumes published after his death by Lacépède. It included everything known about the natural world up until that date. In it Buffon considered the similarities between humans and apes and the possibility of a common ancestry. Buffon debated James Burnett Lord Monboddo on the question of ancestry of the primates to man Monboddo insisting on the closeness of relationship of man and apes. Buffon's work is considered to have greatly influenced modern ecology. His Histoire was translated into many different languages making him the most widely read scientific author of the day.
