- This text explores how Darwin’s work and ideas were transmitted to the Hungarian public through the printed press in the second half of the 19th century. It discusses the role of the transforming Hungarian scientific community in the dissemination of evolutionary theory in the public sphere between the late 1850s and the publication of László Dapsy’s Hungarian translation of Origin of Species in 1873. The paper also reflects on the history of science as a complex history of knowledge(s) as well as transformations in the political, cultural and social context of Hungary in the second half of the 19th century.
