摘要

1881年10月,查尔斯·达尔文在他去世前4个月出版了《通过蠕虫的活动形成蔬菜霉菌及其习性观察》一书。这篇文章的目的是了解这本书出人意料地立即获得巨大成功的原因。达尔文正处于他名声的顶峰,维多利亚时代的人被任何能激起他们对土地和地球的怀旧之情的东西所吸引。然而,达尔文的最后一部作品也是对微小变异的积累理论(借鉴了莱利斯的均变论)和对人类在动物王国的新定位的杰出辩护,这与古老的犹太教-基督教传统不同。可以说,蠕虫成了达尔文的得力拥护者,为达尔文的进化论和反神创论的观点辩护。

La terre, dernier élément de Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin published The Formation of Vegetable Mould through the Action of Worms, with Observations on their Habits in October 1881, four months before his death. This article aims at understanding the reasons for the unexpectedly immense success the book immediately met with. Darwin was at the height of his fame and the Victorians were attracted to anything that stirred up their nostalgia for land and earth. Yet Darwin’s last opus was also a brilliant plea for the theory of the accumulation of small variations (drawing upon Lyellian uniformitarism) and for a new positioning of Man in the animal kingdom that departed from the old Judaeo-Christian tradition. It could be argued that the worm became Darwin’s efficient advocate who championed his views on evolution and anti-Creationism.
