Autorenporträt
Charles Darwin (1809–1882), an English naturalist, geologist, and biologist, is best known for his profound contributions to the science of evolution. Darwin's revolutionary idea that species evolve over time through natural selection provided the foundational framework for modern biology. He documented his scientific expeditions in 'The Voyage of the Beagle' (1839), recounting his observations that led to the formulation of his evolutionary theory. His seminal work, 'On the Origin of Species' (1859), articulated his theory of natural selection and stirred both scientific and religious debate. Less widely recognized, but equally insightful, 'The Formation of Vegetable Mould Through the Action of Worms' (1881), exemplifies Darwin's meticulous research methods and his interest in the interrelatedness of ecological systems. In this book, Darwin presented his observations on earthworms' contribution to soil fertility, which underscored the importance of these organisms in agriculture and ecology. His literary style, characterized by careful observation and methodical documentation, has propelled his works to not only scientific prominence but also literary acclaim. Darwin's contributions extend beyond mere theory, influencing the way humanity perceives its place in the natural world, thus establishing him as a seminal figure in the annals of science and literature.
