本文分析了在《动物学哲学》问世至《物种起源》出版期间，拉马克进化论在科学界的影响。在这50年拉马克的模型是一个众所周知的理论，它被讨论的科学界作为一个假设，以解释不断变化的性质，化石记录在整个地球的历史。拉马克的嬗变理论建立了一个进化模型的基础，引入了一种新的方法来研究自然。达尔文的选择论是在1859年提出来解释物种起源的认识论过程。在这种背景下，查尔斯·莱尔的《地质学原理》和奥古斯特·孔德的《积极哲学教程》成为拉马克1829年去世后传播他进化论思想的两部主要著作。
This paper analyzes the impact that Lamarckian evolutionary theory had in the scientific community during the period between the advent of Zoological Philosophy and the publication Origin of Species. During these 50 years Lamarck’s model was a well known theory and it was discussed by the scientific community as a hypothesis to explain the changing nature of the fossil record throughout the history of Earth. Lamarck’s transmutation theory established the foundation of an evolutionary model introducing a new way to research in nature. Darwin’s selectionist theory was proposed in 1859 to explain the origin of species within this epistemological process. In this context, Charles Lyell’s Principles of Geology and Auguste Comte’s Cours de Philosophie Positive appear as two major works for the dissemination of Lamarck’s evolutionary ideology after the death of the French naturalist in 1829.
