Sommario/riassunto

Fondateur de l’anatomie comparée et figure centrale de la biologie du XIXe siècle, Georges Cuvier a réuni avec l’aide de son élève et collègue Achille ­Valenciennes tout ce que l’on savait sur les ­poissons dans leur imposante Histoire naturelle des poissons publiée en 22 ­volumes de 1828 à 1849. ­Malgré les années, ce travail demeure un jalon dans l’histoire des sciences et continue à être mobilisé par l’ichtyologie systématique et la biologie comparée en général. En guise d’introduction à cette œuvre monumentale, le premier volume retrace l’évolution de l’étude des poissons telle qu’elle était alors comprise — depuis les tout débuts jusqu’au premier tiers du xixe siècle — et résume les critères de classification que suivraient leurs propres travaux. Cuvier se fait donc ici historien de sa propre science. Cet essai

Despite the passage of time, this work represents a landmark in the history of science, indispensable to systematic ichthyology and to comparative biology in general. As an introduction to this monumental work, the first volume traces the development of the study of fishes as then understood—from the earliest beginnings to the first third of the nineteenth-century—and summarizes the criteria for classification that their own work would follow. This critically important essay—one of the first attempts at a comprehensive history…
