    The book demonstrates that in the late 19th to early 20th centuries Darwinism and associated science strongly influenced celebrated Greek literary writers and other influential intellectuals in various areas such as 'man's place in nature', the nature-nurture controversy, religion, and class, race and gender. In addition, it reveals that many of these individuals were not just dealing with important issues from social, political or philosophical perspectives, as has been the general thought till now, but they were also considering alternative approaches to these issues based on Darwinian and associated biological post-Darwinian ideas. These issues included the Greek race/nation, culture, language and identity; politics and gender equality. There is a focus on the work of Grigorios Xenopoulos as a case study, who wrote prolifically through this period

    Schönheit, so meinte man lange zu wissen, habe in der Evolution nichts zu suchen, sei bestenfalls schmückende Zutat oder Handicap beim Kampf ums Überleben. Heute wissen wir: Schönheit ist nicht nur "Äußerlichkeit", sondern verweist auf ein inneres Potential. Weit davon entfernt, lediglich Anpassung zu sein, ist sie ein echter Ausdruck von Individualität. In seinem neuen Buch zeigt der bekannte Evolutionsbiologe Josef H. Reichholf, wie eng die natürliche mit der sexuellen Auslese zusammenhängt, bei der Attraktivität die entscheidende Rolle spielt. Seine Schlussfolgerung: Schönheit und Schönheitsempfinden haben klare biologische Funktionen. Schon Tieren müssen wir Ästhetik zubilligen. Und auch die Rolle, die sie in der Evolution des Menschen spielt, bedarf einer radikalen Neubewertung. Die Kunst, so hat der französische Filmemacher François Truffaut einmal gesagt, bestehe darin, mit schönen Frauen schöne Dinge zu tun. Sollte er damit auch die Grundlagen des Ästhetischen beim Menschen beschrieben haben?

Written as much for scientists, philosophers and ecologists as poets, critics and students of literature, Darwin's Bards is a timely intervention in today's debates surrounding Darwin's legacy for the distinct, yet related worlds of religion, ecology and the arts.The book will appeal to readers for its discussion of the existential implications of Darwinism, for its close readings of poetry, and for the reprinted poems themselves.

    Darwin’s Footprint examines the impact of Darwinism in Greece, investigating how it has shaped Greece in terms of its cultural and intellectual history, and in particular its literature. The book demonstrates that in the late 19th to early 20th centuries Darwinism and associated science strongly influenced celebrated Greek literary writers and other influential intellectuals, which fueled debate in various areas such as ‘man’s place in nature’, eugenics, the nature-nurture controversy, religion, as well as class, race and gender. In addition, the study reveals that many of these individuals were also considering alternative approaches to these issues based on Darwinian and associated biological post-Darwinian ideas. Their concerns included the Greek “race” or nation, its culture, language and identity; also politics and gender equality. Zarimis’s monograph devotes considerable space to Xenopoulos (1867-1951), notable novelist, journalist and playwright

    KNO: Schönheit, so meinte man lange zu wissen, habe in der Evolution nichts zu suchen, sei bestenfalls schmückende Zutat oder Handicap beim Kampf ums Überleben. Heute wissen wir: Schönheit ist nicht nur "Äusserlichkeit", sondern verweist auf ein inneres Potential. Weit davon entfernt, lediglich Anpassung zu sein, ist sie ein echter Ausdruck von Individualität
