In the early 1800s, evolutionary ideas were widely debated in France, and other parts of the Continent. So why did Darwin arise in England, and why in the 1850s? Pietro Corsi describes the intellectual shifts and political contingencies in England and Continental Europe that led up to Darwin's Origin, and its rapid acceptance.
