Extractions: Men så kom dårligere tider for dette arbeidet og Wallace måtte søke seg jobb. Det fikk han som lærer ved en gutteskole i Leicester. Her fantes et rikholdig bibliotek, og det var på dette biblioteket han møtte en annen ung mann som skulle bety mye for hans videre karriere, Henry Walter Bates. Den unge Bates hadde en hobby, eller snarere en lidenskap. Han samlet på biller, og Wallace ble snart fascinert av det enorme artsmangfoldet rett utenfor Leicester. Det kom ut en bok dette året, i 1844, med tittelen "Vestiges of the Natural History of the Creation" ("Spor etter skapelsens naturhistorie").
Extractions: Alfred Russel Wallace (1823 - 1913) is one of the forgotten fathers of modern science. He was born in the village of Usk in Monmouthshire, England. His father died when Alfred was young. Not long after formal schooling ended for Alfred. He joined his brother, William, in surveying a number of English counties over the next four years. This experience was to teach him how to make accurate observations and detailed recordings, skills which would be of immense importance in later life. Shortly after this, Wallace was appointed to the position of drawing-master at the Collegiate School in Leicester. It was here that he met Henry Walter Bates, a fellow teacher who introduced his young colleague to the methods and delights of botany. After two years the friends set out for South America on an expedition which would see them explore the Amazon and Rio Negro rivers. In order to cover a larger area Bates and Wallace split up. Wallace sent his collection of specimens to Para for storage in advance of transportation to England. He spent over four years in the tropical jungles of Brazil before setting sail for home in 1852. Disaster struck on the high seas. Wallace's ship caught fire and had to be abandoned in great haste. He lost his entire collection and most of his notes. Luckily, the crew and passengers were rescued by a passing vessel and, after further difficulties, arrived at Deal in an exhausted state. Such a calamity would have defeated a lesser person but Wallace turned his energies to writing an account of his time in Brazil

Extractions: Alfred Russell Wallace(1823 - 1913). Darwin El darwinismo Wallace pasó muchos años en Sudamérica, publicó sus notas en Viajes en el Amazonas y el Río Negro en 1853. En 1854, Wallace abandonó Inglaterra para estudiar la historia natural de Indonesia, donde contrajo malaria. Se dice que presa de la fiebre Wallace (¿dará la fiebre ideas convergentes....?) se las arregló para escribir sus ideas acerca de la selección natural: "...que la perpetua variabilidad de todos los seres vivos tendría que suministrar el material a partir del cual, por la simple supresión de aquellos menos adaptados a las condiciones del medio, solo los más aptos continuarán en carrera".. El origen de las especies . Este libro influyó profundamente en el pensamiento acerca de nosotros mismos y, conjuntamente con las teorías astronómicas de Copérnico y Galileo (siglos XVI y XVII), cambió la forma de pensar del mundo occidental, es claro que estos pensamientos se contradicen con la interpretación literal de la Biblia. En sus censuradas memorias (censuradas por su esposa y recuperadas por su nieta) Darwin llegó a escribir "Nunca llegué a percibir cuán ilógico era afirmar que creía en lo que no podía entender y en lo que de hecho es ininteligible. Podría haber dicho con absoluta verdad que no deseaba discutir ningún dogma; pero nunca llegué al absurdo de sentir y decir: "creo en lo que es increíble".

The catalogue file at the British Museum (Natural History) suggests Wilkes' vital dates are 17 to 1811. I think that is unlikely as a death date. As this would imply his description (in a work published in weekly installments) was published 5 years posthumously. However, my source that suggested a death date of 1829 for Wilkes suggested a birthdate of 1796, the year the Encycl.Londinensis began publication, so probably his biographical dates should simply be regarded as uncertain.

Alfred Russel Wallace On the Law that has Regulated the Introduction of New Species by Alfred Russel Wallace February, 1855 (also known as the Sarawack Law. ed.) Geographical Distribution dependent on Geologic Changes. A Law deduced from well-known Geographical and Geological Facts. The following propositions in Organic Geography and Geology give the main facts on which the hypothesis is founded. GEOGRAPHY 1. Large groups, such as classes and orders, are generally spread over the whole earth, while smaller ones, such as families and genera, are frequently confined to one portion, often to a very limited district. 2. In widely distributed families the genera are often limited in range; in widely distributed genera, well marked groups of species are peculiar to each geographical district. 3. When a group is confined to one district, and is rich in species, it is almost invariably the case that the most closely allied species are found in the same locality or in closely adjoining localities, and that therefore the natural sequence of the species by affinity is also geographical. 4. In countries of a similar climate, but separated by a wide sea or lofty mountains, the families, genera and species of the one are often represented by closely allied families, genera and species peculiar to the other.
