Darwin in Conversation

Darwin in Conversation: The Endlessly curious life and letters of Charles Darwin.

9th July-3rd December, Cambridge University Library

Cambrigde University Library's upcoming exhibiton, Darwin in Conversation, will uncover little-known aspects of Darwin's life through the 15,000 letters he wrote and received in his lifetime.

Visitors to the University Library will see Darwin was not a lone theoretician sitting in Down House, but someone whose world-changing discoveries and theories were driven by experiment and interaction. Darwin was a complex, richly human individual whose ideas changed throughout his life and were informed as much by the frustrations of failure as the triumphs of success.

This exhibition is free and open to all, further information can be found here.
