This chapter presents an outline of the history of Lamarckian problematics. It provides a historical narrative of Lamarckism and Darwinism, discussing the ways in which the two are related. The formulation of the theory of use inheritance in the late eighteenth century is briefly discussed. The historical narratives span from the first decades of the nineteenth century until the period after World War II, tracing actual relationships among practitioners and conceptual connections among theories.
