Who's Afraid Of Charles Darwin?: Debating Feminism And

The relationship between feminism and the biological sciences has always been particularly tense and hostile. Feminists have been inclined not to trust what scientists had to say about the sexes,with science often being pronounced a Owhite,male enterprise.O But why should feminism and the biological sciences remain at odds? And what might be gained from a reconciliation? In Who's Afraid of Charles Darwin? Griet Vandermassen shows that,rather than continuing this enmity,feminism and the biological scienc

Charles Darwin - Die Biografie

Charles Darwin - Die Biografie: Die Darwin Biografie von Dr. Guido J. Braem befasst sich minutiös mit praktisch sämtlichen verfügbaren Fakten, die in Darwins Leben eine Rolle spielten. Es gibt ein vollständiges Bild der Familie, das auch vor der psychologischen Dimension der Mitglieder und deren Schwächen und Fehlern nicht zurück schreckt. Das liest sich, auch aufgrund des trockenen Humors des Autors, leicht und flüssig, und überschreitet dabei die übliche biografische Dimensionen. Denn Braem zeichnet ein umfassendes, konsistentes Bild auch der Zeit und ihrer Konventionen und Zwänge. Den enormen Rechercheaufwand des Autors förderte Aspekte der Persönlichkeit Darwins und auch der allgemeinen Lebensumstände zutage, die man bisher nie zur Kenntnis nehmen konnte. Das ist zum einen interessant und aufschlussreich, zum anderen ermöglicht es vor allem die Beurteilung oder zumindest Einschätzung verschiedener Motive, die im Allgemeinen unberücksichtigt blieben. Der farbigen und einfühlsamen Darstellungsweise der Forschungsreisen etwa fehlt bei aller wissenschaftlichen Qualität jede Trockenheit, was sonst nur hochwertige Fernsehdokumentationen fertig bringen. Und indem man Darwin und seine Zeitgenossen gleichsam persönlich kennen lernt, treten einige hoch interessante menschliche Aspekte hervor, die dem Leser die Einschätzung Darwins als Person erleichtern, was typisch ist für die ganzheitliche Sichtweise des Autors: Braem zeigt den Menschen Darwin in seine Zeit. So zeigt sich dem Leser ein Jahrhundert, das nicht nur im Hinblick auf Darwins Arbeit enorm ereignisreich war. Zum einen stieg England zur Großmacht auf, in Amerika tobte der Bürgerkrieg, in fast allen europäischen Ländern gab es soziale Unruhen, und zwischen Preußen und Frankreich tobte ein Krieg, zum anderen begann ein gravierender ideologisch-religiöser Umschwung. Und hier zeigt sich die zweite wichtige Dimension des Werks. Indem Darwin nämlich immer weiter zum Ursprung des Lebens vordrang, entfernte er sich immer weiter vom gesellschaftlichen, also vor allem religiösen Konsens. Die Kirche stellte damals die Instanz dar, die das Bewusstsein der Menschen fest im Griff hatte, und an dieser Weltsicht hatte niemand zu zweifeln: Egal was die Wissenschaft zeigte, das Primat der Schöpfung musste bei Gott verbleiben. Braem zeigt, dass Ämter, Neueinstellung und soziale Anerkennung für jeden Schöpfungsleugner in höchster Gefahr waren. Wer Gottes Schöpfungsakt öffentlich auch nur anzweifelte drohte die soziale Isolation. Man macht sich im 21. Jahrhundert nicht leicht klar, wie umfassend die Macht der Kirche als Leitideologie war. Braem zeigt das ebenso seriös wie konkret nachvollziehbar. Diese Biografie ist geprägt von kompromisslosem wissenschaftlichen Rechercheaufwand, tiefem Sachverstand und einem zugleich erfrischend humorvollen und unvoreingenommen anderen Betrachtungsansatz der Dinge, die Charles Darwins Leben und Arbeit bestimmten.

Charles Darwin: Destroyer of Myths (Hardcover)

Charles Darwin did not deliberately set out to be the ?destroyer of mythical beliefs,” some of which,in his early days as a young Christian,he had previously espoused. He was a modest man who liked to avoid controversy of any kind,yet paradoxically,he was to be the cause of the greatest controversy in the history of science and religion. When Darwin embarked on the HMS Beagle in late December ,bound for the southern hemisphere,he could not have imagined that the experience would
