Abstract

El estudio de la contribución de los jesuitas españoles a la ciencia de los tifones ha fluctuado siempre entre la autocomplacencia y el olvido. Este texto desafía tales excesos e insuficiencias mostrando una síntesis de las virtualidades y limitaciones del estudio científico de lostifones en Filipinas. Así se describe cómo el tifón se convirtió en el objeto científico por excelenciapara los jesuitas del Observatorio de Manila, pasando de ser un fenómeno físico amenazante a la raison d’être para la creación de una red de avisos ciclónicos. Ello llevó a las autoridades españolas a fundar el primer servicio meteorológico oficial en Filipinas. Su método predictivo se basó en parte en la teoría y métodos ciclónicos que el Padre Benito Viñeshabía desarrollado en el Observatorio del Colegio de Belén, La Habana.

耶稣会士与菲律宾台风研究，1865-1899年

对西班牙耶稣会士对台风科学贡献的研究一直在自满和遗忘之间波动。本文通过综合菲律宾台风科学研究的虚拟性和局限性，对这些过度和不足提出了挑战。这描述了台风是如何因马尼拉天文台耶稣会士的卓越而成为科学对象的，从一种威胁性的物理现象变成了建立气旋警告网络的理由。这导致西班牙当局在菲律宾建立了第一个官方气象服务机构。他的预测方法部分基于贝尼托·维涅沙比神父在哈瓦那伯利恒学院天文台开发的气旋理论和方法。

期刊介绍： Illes i Imperis is a journal that has been published by the GRIMSE (Research Group on Empires, Metropolis and Extra-European Societies) since 1998. It aims to publish studies on colonial and postcolonial societies. The objectives of the editorial board are patently open. They admit all means of approaching colonial societies and their subsequent realities, provided they meet the quality requirements that are characteristic of the social sciences in our era. We accept and promote the publication of historical papers, although we also welcome contributions from other areas of the social sciences. Illes i Imperis disseminates studies, texts and quantitative materials, it provides references and offers bibliographical commentaries, in addition to information on activities of interest to scholars and those intrigued by the history of societies in the colonial and postcolonial world. In short, the journal strives to serve as a platform for airing the academic concerns of those who take an interest in studying these societies. GRIMSE’s interests have taken a preferential leaning towards studies on Latin America, the Philippines and Southeast Asia; on North Africa; and in relation to the Hispanic metropolitan world during the 15th to 20th centuries. Nevertheless, the journal is not only focussed on studies in this field; rather, in general, it serves as a platform for the publication of academic papers on other areas and periods. We are particularly motivated by studies on other empires (the Portuguese, French, English and Dutch empires, etc.), comparative perspectives and, broadly speaking, analyses that are forged on the basis of typical concerns in the field of World History.
