Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802) apresentou suas ideias evolutivas principalmente no fim do século XVIII. No entanto, elas não foram consideradas na época. Seu neto, Charles Darwin (1809-1882), na 6ª edição do Origin of species as avaliou de modo negativo, comparando-as às concepções equivocadas de Lamarck. O objetivo desta dissertação é inicialmente, descrever as concepções de hereditariedade e evolução de Erasmus, considerando o contexto de sua época. Além disso, procura esclarecer se o tratamento recebido se deveu a uma proposta fraca ou se ela mereceria uma maior consideração. Esta dissertação contém uma Introdução e quatro capítulos. O Capítulo 1 discute a vida, trabalhos e contexto em que Erasmus apresentou suas ideias. O Capítulo 2 lida com as concepções de herança e evolução presentes em Zoonomia. O Capítulo 3 discute sobre as concepções de Erasmus sobre a transformação das espécies nas plantas. O Capítulo 4 compara as concepções evolutivas de Erasmus com as de Lamarck. O Capítulo 5 procura responder às perguntas colocadas no início desta pesquisa e apresenta algumas considerações finais sobre o assunto discutido. Esta pesquisa leva à conclusão de que a transmutação das espécies não era o principal interesse de Erasmus. Ele não ofereceu uma fundamentação empírica para suas ideias. Este fato, juntamente com a situação sócio-político-religiosa da época, muito provavelmente contribuiu para a recepção sofrida. Além disso, embora existam algumas semelhanças entre as propostas de Erasmus e Lamarck, existem também grandes diferenças tais como a abrangência da pesquisa, o espaço dedicado à discussão das ideias, a fundamentação oferecida, dentre outras. Erasmus não propôs uma teoria coerente lidando com desde a origem da vida até o aparecimento do homem como Lamarck. Ele somente apresentou algumas ideias a esse respeito em obras dedicadas a outros assuntos. / Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802) mainly presented his evolutionary views at the end of the 18th century.

The aim of this dissertation is firstly to describe Erasmus Darwins conceptions on heredity and evolution considering the context of his time. Besides that, it tries to elucidate the reception received by them was due to a weak proposal or whether they deserved greater consideration. This dissertation comprises an Introduction and five chapters. Chapter 1 discusses Erasmus Darwins life, work and the context in which he presented his ideas. Chapter 2 deals with the conceptions of inheritance and evolution which are present in Zoonomia. Chapter 3 discusses Erasmus view on the transmutation of species in plants. Chapter 4 compares Erasmuss evolutionary conceptions to Lamarcks ones. Chapter 5 tries to answer the questions proposed in the beginning of this research and presents some final remarks concerning the subject. This research leads to the conclusion that the transmutation of species was not the main Erasmus concern. He did not present any empirical foundation of his views related to the subject. This fact, together with the socio-political-religious situation, must have contributed to its reception. Besides that, although there were some similarities between Erasmuss and Lamarcks proposal there were also great differences such as the scope of the research, the space dedicated to its discussion, the foundation provided, among others. Erasmus did not provide a coherent theory of the transmutation of species dealing with since the origin of life to the rise of man, departing from a study of natural history such as Lamarck. In this respect, he only presented a few ideas in works dedicated to other subjects.

Lorsque nous évoquons la fabrication du violon, la majorité des gens ne mentionnent que les trois luthiers italiens les plus célèbres dans le monde : Nicolo Amati, Antonio Giacomo Stradivari, dit Stradivarius, Bartolomeo Giuseppe Antonio Guarneri c'est-à-dire Guarneri del Gesù, dit Guarnerius. Ils sont sans aucun doute les maîtres-lutherie en la matière et également tous issus de l’école crémonaise. De plus, leurs violons ont beaucoup inspiré leurs successeurs et les luthiers contemporains.A la fin du XVIIIe siècle, la fabrication du violon était essentiellement centralisée en France, plus particulièrement à Paris où sont apparus plusieurs luthiers talentueux tels que Jacques Bocquay, Jean-François Aldric, Louis Guersan, Léopold Renaudin, etc. Bien qu’ils soient moins connus que Stradivarius et Guarnerius, ils ont pris en compte les méthodes de conception italiennes et ont mis en place, grâce à celle-ci, l’école française de lutherie. Enfin, au XIXe siècle, Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume est apparu en France ; il a été non seulement un luthier excellent et innovateur, mais aussi un copiste de Stradivarius très célèbre. D’ailleurs, il a été également un grand praticien de l’acoustique et un commerçant hors pair, ce qui fait qu’aujourd’hui il est considéré comme le «Stradivarius français ».Ainsi mon travail est composé de trois parties : l’origine de l’art et analyse de la structure du moule de Stradivarius, la conception du violon chez Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume, la recherche de la structure du violon à partir des fondements acoustiques ; ces parties sont suivies d’une conclusion. / When we speak about the making of violins most people will only mention the best three world-known Italian stringed-instrument makers: Nicolo Amati, Antonio Giacomo Sradivari, Bartolomeo Giuseppe Antonio Guaneri (Guaneri del Gesù). Without any doubt they are the masters in the art of stringed-instrument manufacture and the three of them come from the Cremonaise. Moreover their violins have inspired their successors and the present-day stringed-instrument makers a lot. At the end of the 18th century violins were mainly made in France especially in Paris where several talented stringed-instrument makers such as Jacques Bocquay, Jean-François Aldric and Leopold Renaudin among others were famous. Although they are less well-known than Stradivari and Guarneri they took the Italian designed methods into account and thanks to them they created the French Style. Finally in the 19th century Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume appeared in France: he was not just an excellent stringed-instrument maker and innovator but also a very famous copyist of Stradivari’s work. What’s more he was also a great practitioner of acoustics and an outstanding trader. Consequently he is now known as the “French Stradivari”. Thus my thesis is made up of three parts: the origin of the art and analysis of the structure of a Stradivari mould, Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume’s design of a violin, the study of the structure of violins from acoustic basis and finally a conclusion.319th century Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume appeared in France: he was not just an excellent stringed-instrument maker and innovator but also a very famous copyist of Stradivari’s work.

The principles of transformist theory are elaborated in Zoological Philosophy (1809), to wit, Lamarck s best-known work. The aim of the present study was to identify the contemporary scientific ideas on the nervous system that influenced Lamarck s thought on the higher mental functions. The results show that Lamarck had recourse to notions form natural philosophy, physiology and medicine that he reworked based on ideas formulated by Encyclopedists and Ideologists / O Transformismo, fundado por Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, foi a primeira proposição a sustentar a contínua transformação dos seres vivos através de um grande período de tempo. Os princípios do Transformismo estão explicitados na obra mais conhecida do autor, Filosofia Zoológica (1809). O objetivo da presente tese consistiu em identificar as possíveis influências científicas referidas às concepções contemporâneas sobre o sistema nervoso, recebidas por Lamarck na sua construção do modelo de funções mentais superiores. Lamarck usou conceitos de filosofia natural, fisiologia, medicina, apoiado, sobretudo, nas ideias dos enciclopedistas e dos ideólogos
