Lyell's Reception on the Continent of Europe: a Contribution to an Open Historiographical Problem Downloaded from http://sp.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on September 29, 2021 Lyell's reception on the continent of Europe: a contribution to an open historiographical problem EZIO VACCARI Centro di Studio sulla Storia della Tecnica, CNR Via Balbi 6, 16126 Genova, Italy Abstract: After the publication of the Principles of Geology the name of Charles Lyell became well known among European geologists. However, the diffusion of his works and the intensity of the debates on his ideas varied throughout the continent. This paper attempts to analyse some aspects of Lyell's reception in Continental Europe, emphasizing the role of the translations of fundamental works such as the Principles of Geology and the Elements of Geology, as well as their influence on the first textbooks of geology published in Europe, especially from the 1840s onwards. Some significant examples of nineteenth-centuryEuropean reactions to Lyell's geology, and in particular to his uniformitarian statements, will be pointed out, in order to show the extent of Lyell's influence. The question of Charles Lyell's reception in Europe The different kinds of sources may be briefly is undoubtedly a major topic in the history of described as follows : geology, which encompasses several stimulating historiographical and scientific issues. In 1990, at (1) Translations of Lyell's major works, such as the the end of his new introduction to the facsimile Principles of Geology (1830-1833), the reprint of the first edition of Lyell's Principles of Elements of Geology (1838) and Antiquity of Geology, Martin Rudwick (1990, p. Iv) remarked Man (1863a), but also other writings. Research that 'the nature and timing of Lyell's influence may allow us to understand the editorial story outside the English-speaking world is an important of some translations, i.e. to evaluate the role of topic on which little historical research has yet been the possible promoters, the scientific standing done'.

  • Biography of Sir Benjamin Collins Brodie
    Short Biographies of Philosophizing Chemists Sir Benjamin Collins Brodie (1817-1880) by William H. Brock The English chemist Benjamin Collins Brodie, who was regarded by Kekulé as “definitely one of the most philosophical minds in chemistry” (R. An- schütz, August Kekulé , Berlin, 1929, I, p. 187), was the eldest son of Britain’s leading physiologist and surgeon, Sir Benjamin Collins Brodie (1783-1862). Brodie père , who was president of the Royal Society from 1858 to 1861, had been made a baronet in 1834 for his medical services to the Royal family, and his son inherited the baronetcy in 1862. A theist and anti-materialist, Brodie senior was profoundly interested in metaphysical questions. He published two volumes of Psychological enquiries (1854 and 1862), a series of dialogues between a country gentleman, a doctor and a lawyer, that were much influ- enced by Humphry Davy’s posthumous Consolations in travel (1830). These well-meaning, but turgid, dialogues were concerned with unfashionable topics such as dualism, natural theology, and the problems of pain and immortality. They seem to have made little impact on Brodie’s contemporaries, who were finding Herbert Spencer’s psychological and evolutionary writings more ex- citing. However, their publication suggests that the younger Brodie was brought up in an atmosphere of philosophical inquiry in which the metaphys- ical foundations of scientific beliefs were critically questioned. The younger Brodie was educated at Harrow School from where he won a classics scholarship to Caius College, Cambridge. However, his father, pre- ferring him to be educated as a commoner, sent him to Balliol College, Ox- ford in 1835.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by RERO DOC Digital Library Science in Context 22(3), 439–461 (2009). Copyright C Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0269889709990081 Printed in the United Kingdom Inherited Territories: The Glarus Alps, Knowledge Validation, and the Genealogical Organization of Nineteenth-Century Swiss Alpine Geognosy Andrea Westermann Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich Argument The article examines the organizational patterns of nineteenth-century Swiss Alpine geology. It argues that early and middle nineteenth-century Swiss geognosy was shaped in genealogical terms and that the patterns of genealogical reasoning and practice worked as a vehicle of transmission toward the generalization of locally gained empirical knowledge. The case study is provided by the Zurich geologist Albert Heim, who, in the early 1870s, blended intellectual and patrilineal genealogies that connected two generations of fathers and sons: Hans Conrad and Arnold Escher, Albert and Arnold Heim. Two things were transmitted from one generation to the next, a domain of geognostic research, the Glarus Alps, and a research interest in an explanation of the massive geognostic anomalies observed there. The legacy found its embodiment in the Escher family archive. The genealogical logic became visible and then experienced a crisis when, later in the century, the focus of Alpine geology shifted from geognosy to tectonics. Tectonic research loosened the traditional link between the intimate knowledge of a territory and the generalization from empirical data. 1. Introduction In 1878, Albert Heim (1849–1937) published a monograph on the anatomy of folds and the related mechanisms of mountain building based on what he had observed in the Glarus district of Mounts Todi¨ and Windgallen,¨ an area where, in today’s calculation, rocks aged between 250 and 300 million years overlie much younger rocks aged about 50 million years.

  • James Hutton's Reputation Among Geologists in the Late Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
    The Geological Society of America Memoir 216 Revising the Revisions: James Hutton’s Reputation among Geologists in the Late Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries A. M. Celâl Şengör* İTÜ Avrasya Yerbilimleri Enstitüsü ve Maden Fakültesi, Jeoloji Bölümü, Ayazağa 34469 İstanbul, Turkey ABSTRACT A recent fad in the historiography of geology is to consider the Scottish polymath James Hutton’s Theory of the Earth the last of the “theories of the earth” genre of publications that had begun developing in the seventeenth century and to regard it as something behind the times already in the late eighteenth century and which was subsequently remembered only because some later geologists, particularly Hutton’s countryman Sir Archibald Geikie, found it convenient to represent it as a precursor of the prevailing opinions of the day. By contrast, the available documentation, pub- lished and unpublished, shows that Hutton’s theory was considered as something completely new by his contemporaries, very different from anything that preceded it, whether they agreed with him or not, and that it was widely discussed both in his own country and abroad—from St. Petersburg through Europe to New York. By the end of the third decade in the nineteenth century, many very respectable geologists began seeing in him “the father of modern geology” even before Sir Archibald was born (in 1835). Before long, even popular books on geology and general encyclopedias began spreading the same conviction. A review of the geological literature of the late eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries shows that Hutton was not only remembered, but his ideas were in fact considered part of the current science and discussed accord- ingly.

Access to maps, globes and measuring instruments was also included in the plans for the Library Hall. Library Hall The decisive breakthrough leading to the conversion of the Central Library came in 1784. By virtue of his post [Stiftschaffner], Johann Friedrich von Ryhiner (1732-1803) oversaw the Hohe Schule (the forerunner of Berne University) and the Library. The Library was equipped with an anteroom (today the Hallersaal at the Burghers' Library) and a Library Hall (today the Schultheissen Room at the Central Library), which was ready for use in 1794. The portraits of former Schultheissen or mayors, which gave the room its name, were not.transferred to the Library until 1857. The Library Hall in Berne, which is of the type known as a gallery library, has a restrained elegance on account of its narrow width and the lighting from both sides. The ceiling painting by lgnaz Franz Keil (ea. 1744-1814), dated 1789, shows the coronation of Minerva by Apollo. The seven liberal arts are gathered on Mount Parnassus: astronomy (Ptolemy), music (Tubal­ Cain), geometry (Euclid), arithmetic (Pythagoras), rhetoric (Cicero), dialectics (Aristotle) and grammar (Priscian).

  • Visions of Volcanoes David M
    Visions of Volcanoes David M. Pyle Introduction Since antiquity, volcanoes have been associated with fire, heat, and sulphur, or linked to fiery places — the burning hearth, the blacksmith’s forge, or the underworld. Travellers returned from distant shores with tales of burning mountains, and the epithet stuck. In his dictionary of 1799, Samuel Johnson defined a volcano as ‘a burning mountain that emits flames, stones, &c’, and fire as ‘that which has the power of burning, flame, light, lustre’.1 ‘Fire mountains’ are found around the world, from Fogo (the Azores and Cape Verde Islands) to Fuego (Guatemala, Mexico, and the Canary Islands) and Gunung Api (multiple volcanoes in Indonesia). Similar analogies with fire pervade the technical language of volcanology. Rocks associated with volcanoes are igneous rocks; the fragmental deposits of past volcanic eruptions are pyroclastic rocks; the dark gravel-sized fragments ejected during eruptions are often called cinders, and the finest grain sizes of ejecta are called ash. Specific styles of volcanic activity likewise attract fiery names: from the ‘fire fountains’ that light up the most vigorous eruptions of Kilauea, on Hawaii, to the nuées ardentes that laid waste to the town of St Pierre in Martinique in 1902. However, as became clear to nineteenth-century observers, the action of eruption is not usually associated with combustion: the materials ejected from volcanoes are not usually burning, but glow red or orange because they are hot, and it is this radiant heat that provides the illumination during eruptions.
