Resumo: Cuvier’s confidence in the possibility of reconstructing the way of life of an extinct animal from a complete knowledge of its anatomy and its physiology could make us think that his program for paleontology somewhat anticipated Darwinian adaptacionism. Nevertheless, even if this interpretation seemsreasonable, it ignores the cognitive aims and the fundamental presuppositions of the Cuvierian program. This ignorance conspires against a correct evaluation of the meaning and the impact of the results obtained by Cuvier in the study of fossils. The relevance of those results is in showing that extinctliving beings were subordinated to the same laws of organization as living beings existing today.

Entretanto, mesmo que esse interpreetação pareça razoável, ela ignora os objetivos cognitivos e as pressuposições fundamentais do programa Cuvieriano. Essa ignorância conspira contra uma correta avaliação do significado e do impacto dos resultados obtidos por Cuvier no estudo dos fósseis. A relevância de tais resultados está em mostrar que seres vivos extintos estavam subordinados às mesmas leis da organização que os seres vivos que existem hoje.Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC2004-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/principia/article/view/1464610.5007/%xPrincipia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 8 No. 2 (2004); 233-258Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 8 Núm. 2 (2004); 233-258Principia: an international journal of epistemology; v. 8 n. 2 (2004); 233-2581808-17111414-4247reponame:Principia (Florianópolis.
