IT is a strangely difficult thing, for one Of our generation, to picture the acuteness of the upheaval brought about in 1859 by the publication of the Origin of Species. It is hard to realize that there should have been so much novelty in the ideas expressed in the book that thought should have been overwhelmed by the new teaching; that evolution should have become a creed; and that special creation should have become an obsession. So many suggestions had gone forth before, so much of the path had been paved for evolution, that it seems strange how the basal idea that species were not specially created, and definitely fixed types of life, should have suddenly, as a flame, lit up the fires of the most bitter controversy carried on in modern times. |
