‎Die Entstehung der Alpen.‎

‎Wien, Braumüller, 1875, in-8vo, IV + 168 S., Stempel a.T.; Exlibris Nazario Pavoni, Hlwd. (Bibl.).‎


‎Erste Ausgabe dieses berühmten Werkes des Präsidenten der österr. Akademie der Wissenschaften. - Das Eingreifen des Wiener Geologen und Paläontologen Suess in die Frage der Gebirgsbildung kennzeichnet den Beginn einer neuen Epoche. Eine an Tatsachen und Ideen ungewöhnlich reiche Schrift, über die A. Heim in seiner 'Geologie der Schweiz' Bd. 1, S. 17 so urteilt: " Ein wahrhaft prophetischer Blick tritt uns in dem kleinen Büchlein entgegen, das ein Markstein in der Geschichte der Gebirgstheorie überhaupt geworden ist". - "After observing asymmetry in the Carpathians, The Sudetes, and the Apennines", Suess "located it again in the Alps. The initial result of these peregrinations was 'Die Entstehung der Alpen', which contained many of his governing ideas in embryonic form. Rather than a geological description of the Alps, it was an overall view of the genesis and structure of mountain chains". DSB XIII/143ff., Brockhaus (15. Aufl.) XI/353; Zittel S. 462; Mathew-Mason, source Book in geology S. 503 ff. ‎
