Darwin als quioscos. La fàbula del goril·la i el cavall marí Autors/ores Óscar Barberá Rosa Giner Vicent Miralles Resum Darwin on Sale in the Kiosks. The Gorilla and the Seahorse.A simple drawing and thirteen verses from the year 1861 are an example of scientifi c communication that enables us to assess certain events that will never take place again. The authors narrate the history of a dispute about anatomy that took place between two of the greatest specialists in VictorianEngland: Owen and Huxley. This was an uninhibited, public argument, held before all the Londoners in the halls of Scientifi c Societies and Worker’s Unions, reported in popular magazines on sale in kiosks and those published by the Gentlemen’s Clubs, as well as in more prestigious scientifi c publications. Besides making a spectacle, this controversy of almost local scope brought about a deep change in our perception of the world and the place we humans hold in it.
