Abstract

Between 1863 and 1928, positions regarding evolution and creationism debated in today's polls and popular culture first appeared in the Anglo-American world. By reviewing writings of T. H. Huxley, Alfred Russel Wallace, Helena P. Blavatsky, and H. P. Lovecraft, early formulations in today's culture wars and their relation to human curiosity or xenophobia become evident. Exploring these individuals in relation to one another is warranted since Blavatsky and Lovecraft, with their impact on popular culture in the twentieth century, often wrote in response to evolutionary writings, including those of Wallace and Huxley with their respective design-oriented and agnostic positions.
