We say goodbye of Darwin...

Very well, so after a year of references to the life and work of Charles Darwin, today there has come the moment to dismiss us of this personage who managed to exhibit an evolutionary theory which is still completely current 150 years later in the scientific group.
We have been already presenting throughout the whole year multiple evidences of the importance of the work of Darwin and some of the persons to whom it was related.
In what perhaps we have not we have made emphasis sufficient it is in the revolutionary aspect that it had. The theory of the Evolution for natural selection supposed a radical change in the society of the middle of the XIXth century. His book on "The Origin of the Species" and the aftermath that followed him ("The Origin of the Man" and "The Expression of the Emotions...") they constituted the first scientific contributions that by implication they were attacking to the religious class and to the omnipresent idea up to this moment of which the divine action was behind all the aspects of the nature and the life.
If the XVIIIth century had supposed the Golden Age of the discovery of our planet, with the Enlightenment as force motorboat, only it had generated an increase in the description of the natural diversity of the same one. It was the XIXth century, with his multitude of revolutionary movements, which generated a new impetus in the explanations search for all this biodiversity, which culminated with the work of Darwin (and Wallace). And from this moment, the Science in general got rid of his religious ties and supposed the big blast-off of the western society to face the big challenges of the XXth century, many of which were an enclosed product of the new technological development.
