  1. Darwin – nieuwe inzichten over een oude held prof.dr. Hub Zwart hoogleraar Filosofie van de natuurwetenschappen aan de Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen

  2. CharlesDarwin (1809 – 1882) The origin of Species By Means of Natural Selection or The preservation of favoured races In the Struggle for Life

  3. The origin of species (1859) How fleeting are the wishes and efforts of man! How short is his time! But nature grants vast periods of time for the work of natural selection... Incomprehensibly vast have been the periods of time... Enormous intervals of time... What time this must have consumed! Vast intervals of time... We continually forget how large the world is...

  4. Van Romantiek naar Realisme Beautiful, exquisite adaptations are the outcome of a fierce struggle for life Of the many individuals born, only a small number can survive They are exposed to a severe competition, a universal struggle for existence, for life. The great battle of life, war of nature, etc.

  5. Origin of Species We behold the face of nature bright with gladness, we often see superabundance of food; we do not see, or we forget, that the birds which are ildy singing round us mostly live on insects or seeds, and are thus constantly destroying life; or we forget how largely these songsters, or their eggs, or their nestlings, are destroyed by birds and beasts of prey; we do not always bear in mind, that though food may be now superabundant, it is not so in all seasons of each recurring year.

  6. Zijn wij Darwinisten? Wij zien, naast strijd en competitie, vooral ook samenwerking, interactie, symbiose en wederzijdse afhankelijkheid in de natuur. Wij zien niet individuen, maar netwerken.

  7. Zijn wij nog Darwinisten? Darwin Natura non facit saltus Imperfection of the geological record Accumulation of infinitesimal small modifications Nu Catastrofes en explosies Punctuated equilibrium

  8. Kunstwerken prof.dr. Hub Zwart

  9. Jack London (1876 – 1916)

  10. Call of the wild (1903)

  11. Buck as a “research animal” “jerked from the heart of civilization and flung into the heart of things primordial” “retrogression” - his civilized self is gradually erased He develops a completely new behavioural repertoire. Everything about him changes: his habits of sleeping and eating, his senses even. His body changes His moral sense, a handicap in the ruthless struggle for existence, quickly decays, until eventually his decivilisation is complete. At the end, the repressed “primordial beast” in him becomes dominant again.

  12. Before Adam
