This study interprets Robert Hooke's "Lectures and Discourses of Earthquakes, and Subterraneous Eruptions" (1667-1694). Hooke's hypotheses concerning the origin of terrestrial features were of major importance to the development of geology. The volume consists of the original text transposed into modern type, paired with explanatory annotations; a brief biography of Hooke, with emphasis on his geological contributions; and a comparison of selected passages from James Hutton, to show the transmission of ideas and Hooke's influence on later geologists.
