DATES OF THE PUBLICATION Of CHARLES DARWIN'S BOOKS AND OF THE PRINCIPAL EVENTS IN HIS LIFE
1809:
Charles Darwin born at Shrewsbury; February 12。
1817:
〃At 8 1/2 years old I went to Mr Case's school。〃 (A day…school at Shrewsbury kept by the Rev G。 Case; Minister of the Unitarian Chapel。)
1818:
〃I was at school at Shrewsbury under a great scholar; Dr Butler; I learnt absolutely nothing; except by amusing myself by reading and experimenting in Chemistry。〃
1825:
〃As I was doing no good at school; my father wisely took me away at a rather earlier age than usual; and sent me (Oct。 1825) to Edinburgh University with my brother; where I stayed for two years。〃
1828:
Began residence at Christ's College; Cambridge。
〃I went to Cambridge early in the year 1828; and soon became acquainted with Professor Henslow。。。Nothing could be more simple; cordial and unpretending than the encouragement which he afforded to all young naturalists。〃
〃During the three years which I spent at Cambridge my time was wasted; as far as the academical studies were concerned; as completely as at Edinburgh and at school。〃
〃In order to pass the B。A。 Examination; it was。。。necessary to get up Paley's 'Evidences of Christianity;' and his 'Moral Philosophy'。。。The careful study of these works; without attempting to learn any part by rote; was the only part of the academical course which。。。was of the least use to me in the education of my mind。〃
1831:
Passed the examination for the B。A。 degree in January and kept the following terms。
〃I gained a good place among the oi polloi or crowd of men who do not go in for honours。〃
〃I am very busy;。。。and see a great deal of Henslow; whom I do not know whether I love or respect most。〃
Dec。 27。 〃Sailed from England on our circumnavigation;〃 in H。M。S。 〃Beagle〃; a barque of 235 tons carrying 6 guns; under Capt。 FitzRoy。
〃There is indeed a tide in the affairs of men。〃
1836:
Oct。 4。 〃Reached Shrewsbury after absence of 5 years and 2 days。〃
〃You cannot imagine how gloriously delightful my first visit was at home; it was worth the banishment。〃
Dec。 13。 Went to live at Cambridge (Fitzwilliam Street)。
〃The only evil I found in Cambridge was its being too pleasant。〃
1837:
〃On my return home (in the 'Beagle') in the autumn of 1836 I immediately began to prepare my journal for publication; and then saw how many facts indicated the common descent of species。。。In July (1837) I opened my first note…book for facts in relation to the Origin of Species; about which I had long reflected; and never ceased working for the next twenty years。。。Had been greatly struck from about the month of previous March on character of South American fossils; and species on Galapagos Archipelago。 These facts (especially latter); origin of all my views。〃
〃On March 7; 1837 I took lodgings in (36) Great Marlborough Street in London; and remained there for nearly two years; until I was married。〃
1838:
〃In October; that is fifteen months after I had begun my systematic enquiry; I happened to read for amusement 'Malthus on Population;' and being well prepared to appreciate the struggle for existence which everywhere goes on from long…continued observation of the habits of animals and plants; it at once struck me that under these circumstances favourable variations would tend to be preserved; and unfavourable ones to be destroyed。 The result of this would be the formation of new species。 Here then I had at last got a theory by which to work; but I was so anxious to avoid prejudice; that I determined not for some time to write even the briefest sketch of it。〃
1839:
Married at Maer (Staffordshire) to his first cousin Emma Wedgwood; daughter of Josiah Wedgwood。
〃I marvel at my good fortune that she; so infinitely my superior in every single moral quality; consented to be my wife。 She has been my wise adviser and cheerful comforter throughout life; which without her would have been during a very long period a miserable one from ill…health。 She has earned the love of every soul near her〃 (Autobiography)。
Dec。 31。 〃Entered 12 Upper Gower street〃 (now 110 Gower street; London)。 〃There never was so good a house for me; and I devoutly trust you (his future wife) will approve of it equally。 The little garden is worth its weight in gold。〃
Published 〃Journal and Researches〃; being Vol。 III。 of the 〃Narrative of the Surveying Voyage of H。M。S。 'Adventure' and 'Beagle'〃。。。
Publication of the 〃Zoology of the Voyage of H。M。S。 'Beagle'〃; Part II。; 〃Mammalia〃; by G。R。 Waterhouse; with a 〃Notice of their habits and ranges〃; by Charles Darwin。
1840:
Contributed Geological Introduction to Part I。 (〃Fossil Mammalia〃) of the 〃Zoology of the Voyage of H。M。S。 'Beagle'〃 by Richard Owen。
1842:
〃In June 1842 I first allowed myself the satisfaction of writing a very brief abstract of my (species) theory in pencil in 35 pages; and this was enlarged during the summer of 1844 into one of 230 pages; which I had fairly copied out and still (1876) possess。〃 (The first draft of 〃The Origin of Species〃; edited by Mr Francis Darwin; will be published this year (1909) by the Syndics of the Cambridge University Press。)
Sept。 14。 Settled at the village of Down in Kent。
〃I think I was never in a more perfectly quiet country。〃
