The Slaughterhouse and the Smiling Fields. On Pain and Beauty of Nature Between Newton and Darwin

The essay explores, on the one side, the strategies with which, in modern times and up to Darwin, natural theologians attempted to justify or minimize the existence of pain and suffering in the natural world, and, on the other, the “dissenting voices” of those philosophers and scientists who, between the 18th and the 19th centuries, protested against these apologetic attempts.
