Art Forms in Nature: radiolaria from Haeckel and Blaschka to

O’Connor B (1996) Confocal laser scanning microscopy: a new technique for investigating and illustrating fossil Radiolaria. Even when those who “read” the images are familiar with different “iconic languages” and there is a strong risk of misunderstanding, Hans Georg Gadamer teaches us that this does not always lead to negative results but, on the contrary, often paves the way for new interpretations.

His work was credited with having caused the acceptance of Darwinism in Europe, and his popular studies ― preaching the continuity of all life, organic and inorganic, from prehistoric time to the present ― converted tens of thousands of readers all over the world.
