Museum Lecture: Darwin Goes Digital

Charles Darwin’s Evolutionary Manuscripts include numerous original documents that make it possible to trace the long maturation of Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection. A panel of noted Darwin experts will mark the Museum’s historic online publication of this entire 30,000-item corpus by speaking on the collection’s never-before-published treasures. The presenters will include Randal Keynes, a conservationist and Darwin’s great–great–grandson; field biologist and historian of evolution James Costa, and David Kohn, director of the Museum’s Darwin Manuscripts Project. Moderated by Jonathan Weiner, author of The Beak of the Finch.
