Evo Psych Lecture 2
Big Question #2: What is evolution?
Evolution simply means “change over time”, or when more directly applied to living organisms it means “decent with modification.”
?
Big Question #3: Where did the idea of evolution come from?
Evolutionary ideas have been around for millennia
Anaximander, Greek philosopher (c. 610 BC – c. 546 BC) “in water the first animal arose covered with spiny skin and with the lapse of time some crawled onto dry land…” On Nature
Evolutionary ideas: Pre-Darwin
Augustine of Hippo (St. Augustine 354-430 CE)
“In the beginning were created only germs or causes of the forms of life which were afterwards to be developed in gradual course”St. Augustine from De Genesi ad Litteram (Literal meaning of Genesis)
Rationes Seminales: Seminal reasons, seminal ideas, originating principles. Presumed to have been implanted in organisms in seedlike form at the moment of creation. Some things were not created “fully formed” but were created more as seeds with the forms imprinted in them. Over time the seed is allowed to unfold, following the plan to it final form
Rationes SeminalesWhat’s evolutionary about it?Does allow for gradual change over time, with sometimes dramatic transformation taking place. Such as acorn transforming into oak tree. Furthermore, these transformations follow the laws of nature and require no divine intervention once the process has begun. De Genesi ad Litteram 9:17 (Augustine’s discussion of the regularity of natural laws)
What’s not evolutionary about it?Augustine adhered to the Aristotelian notion of fixity of species. Thus, the rationes seminales did not allow for the creation of new species, a central element of modern evolutionary theory. However, in his adherence to the notion of fixity of species Augustine was simply reflecting the state of knowledge of his day. De Genesi ad Litteram 9:17
Evolutionary Ideas: Pre-Darwin
Thomas Aquinas 1225-1274
Adhered to Aristotelian fixity of species
