Description
Taking up the historical evolution of Darwin and his theories and the cultural responses they have inspired, 'Reflecting on Darwin' poses the following questions: "How are the apparatuses in the mid-nineteenth century and at the turn of the twenty-first century interconnected with bio-scientific paradigms in art, literature, culture and science? How are naturalism, determinism and Darwinism - the eugenics of the nineteenth century and the genetic coding of the twentieth century - positioned, embodied and staged in various media configurations and media genres? and "How have particular media apparatuses formed, displaced or stabilized the various concepts of humankind in the framework of evolutionary theory? Ranging from the early circulation of Darwin's ideas to the present, this interdisciplinary collection pays particular attention to Darwin's postmillennial reception.
