Uexküll translation project completed - to be published in Biosemiotics

About a month ago Jonathan Beever and myself finished our cooperative Uexküll translation project, involving two articles:
  • "Darwin and the English Morality", translation (by me, with English language editing by Jonathan) of Jakob von Uexküll's 1917 essay "Darwin und die Englische Moral"
  • the framing essay "“Darwin und die englische Moral”: The Moral Consequences of Uexküll’s Umwelt Theory", written by Jonathan and me
Both articles will be published in the journal Biosemiotics - online this autumn and in print in early 2014. The two articles were resubmitted with minor changes made on April 2nd.
