Beagle</em> sob o comando do capitão Robert FitzRoy que convidou o recentemente licenciado Charles Darwin com 22 anos e desejoso de conhecer os trópicos antes de se tornar pastor.</p>_x000d_<p>A expedição atravessou o Oceano Atlântico em rumo às costas do sul da América do Sul onde se realizaram pormenorizados levantamentos hidrográficos regressando pelo Taiti e pela Austrália completando uma circum-navegação à Terra. Era previsto que durasse apenas dois anos mas arrastou-se ao longo de cinco.</p>_x000d_<p>Com esta viagem Darwin consagrou-se como geólogo e colecionador de fósseis de prestígio. Dela resultou a publicação da presente obra e do seu conhecido diário <em>The Voyage of the Beagle</em>. Ambas contribuíram largamente para o seu reconhecimento dentro da comunidade científica. As experiências e descobertas que realizou durante a expedição forneceram a base para as ideias que o levaram à elaboração da sua teoria da evolução por selecção natural.</p>_x000d_<p>Charles Robert Darwin Shrewsbury 1809 Downe 1882 foi um naturalista inglês famoso pela sua teoria da evolução através da seleção natural. Desde cedo demonstrou interesse pela história natural. Depois de se formar em Teologia na Universidade de Cambridge embarcou numa jornada épica a bordo do HMS Beagle onde recolheu uma vasta gama de espécimes e observações que influenciaram profundamente o seu pensamento.<br /><br />Publicou a sua obra muito popular «A Origem das Espécies» em 1859 onde propôs que todas as espécies de seres vivos descendem de ancestrais comuns e que a seleção natural é o mecanismo primário responsável pela evolução das espécies ao longo do tempo. A teoria de Darwin teve um impacto revolucionário não só no campo da biologia mas também nas ciências humanas desafiando conceções prevalecentes sobre a origem e a diversidade da vida na Terra.<br /><br />Além das suas contribuições científicas Darwin era também um escritor e correspondente prolífico. O seu trabalho continua a ser estudado e debatido até aos dias de hoje estabelecendo o seu lugar como um dos pensadores mais influentes da história da ciência.</p>_x000d_<p>Obs.: Esta obra pesa mais de 5 kg.

18965553<p><strong>First edition of the significant Russian translation of 'On the Origin of Species' by Kliment Timiryazev.</strong></p><p>The first Russian translation of Darwin's '<em>On the Origin of Species</em>' was completed in 1864 based on the American edition of 1860 and heavily influenced by the first German translation 1860.</p><p>A second translation appeared in 1896 offered in two versions—one by journalist historian and mathematician Mikhail Filipov and the other by the renowned Russian botanist and physiologist Kliment Timiryazev 1843-1920 a prominent advocate for Darwin's theories in Russia. Both translations were based on Darwin's final 6th edition 1876.</p><p>This first volume of the four-volume series '<em>The Works</em>' by Darwin features Timiryazev's first translation. As a young student at the University of St. Petersburg in 1860 Timiryazev first encountered Darwin's theory of the origin of species. After graduating he traveled to Heidelberg for further study and research where he spent much of his time with Vladimir Kovalevsky a passionate Russian Darwinist. In 1877 Timiryazev after some difficulty managed to arrange a meeting with Charles Darwin at Down House. Upon returning to Russia Timiryazev devoted himself to defending and promoting Darwin's theories. His translations of Darwin's works are considered the highest quality both in translation accuracy and scientific editing.</p><p><strong><em>Please be advised that certain books in our collection may require an export permit for international shipping.
