Description

Explore a new perspective on the intellectual history of the 19th century with this collection of essays by Bernard Lightman. While many scholars view T.H. Huxley, John Tyndall, and their allies as the primary forces behind the secularization of British social and intellectual life, this work offers a different view. In Evolutionary Naturalism in Victorian Britain: The 'Darwinians' and their Critics, Lightman challenges the idea that scientific naturalism held absolute power to undermine religion during the middle and late-Victorian eras. This Variorum Collected Studies volume provides a deep look into the lives and arguments of the evolutionary naturalists, with a specific focus on the biologist Thomas Henry Huxley. This book is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the relationship between science and religion in Great Britain. It examines the actual impact of the Darwinians and their critics, moving beyond common historical exaggerations to provide a more nuanced understanding of how scientific thought interacted with religious belief in Victorian society.
