Abstract

Jesuits and the Book of Nature: Science and Education in Modern Portugal offers an account of the Jesuits’ contributions to science and education after the restoration of the Society of Jesus in Portugal in 1858. As well as promoting an education grounded on an “alliance between religion and science,” the Portuguese Jesuits founded a scientific journal that played a significant role in the consolidation of taxonomy, plant breeding, biochemistry, and molecular genetics. In this book, Francisco Malta Romeiras argues that the priority the Jesuits placed on the teaching and practice of science was not only a way of continuing a centennial tradition but should also be seen as response to the adverse anticlerical milieu in which the restoration of the Society of Jesus took place.

Abstract

In Decoding the Stars , Ileana Chinnici offers an account of the life of the Jesuit scientist Angelo Secchi (1818-1878). In addition to providing an invaluable account of Secchi's life and work-something that has been sorely lacking in the English-language scholarship-this biography will be especially stimulating for those interested in the evolution of astrophysics as a discipline from the nineteenth century onward. Despite his eclecticism, reminiscent of the natural philosophers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Secchi was in many ways a very modern scientist: open to innovation and cooperation, and a promoter of popularization and citizen science. Secchi also appears fully inserted in the cultural context of his time: he participated in philosophical and scientific debates, spread new theories and ideas, but also suffered the consequences of political events that marked those years and impacted on his life and activities.

Abstract

Ce volume, édité par Pierre-Antoine Fabre, Patrick Goujon SJ et Martín M. Morales SJ, présente trente-sept études sur l’histoire contemporaine de la Compagnie de Jésus, entre la fin du XVIIIe siècle et le XXe siècle. Ces études sont multilingues, multidisciplinaires et se déploient sur un large éventail chronologique, géographique et thématique, bien que la suppression (1773) et la restauration (1814) de la Compagnie par deux papes successifs, Clément XIV et Pie VII, fournissent l’orientation principale du volume. Jusqu’à une date récente, l’histoire contemporaine des jésuites a reçu une attention relativement limitée. Ce volume vise à guider les lecteurs dans les richesses de cette période pour l’histoire de la Compagnie et démontrer son importance pour les études historiques de manière plus générale, autour de la grande charnière de l’époque moderne et de l’époque contemporaine. Une grande nouveauté de ce volume est qu’il articule le dernier XVIIIe siècle, la période intermédiaire de la suppression (1773-1814), et la « Nouvelle Compagnie » (de la Restauration). Le cadre général du livre ouvre ainsi une fenêtre sur les grandes ruptures de l’histoire européenne, dans le passage de la première à la seconde « globalisation ». Alors que les bouleversements de cette période sont ainsi revisités, les continuités persistantes entre les deux siècles émergent également, illustrés en particulier par la survie partielle de la société elle-même pendant les quarante et un ans de sa suppression pontificale. La Compagnie de Jésus des Anciens Régimes au monde contemporain est une co-publication entre l’Institutum Historicum Societatis Iesu et L’École française de Rome, avec la collaboration de l’Université Pontificale Grégorienne.

Abstract

After their restoration of 1814, the Jesuits made significant contributions to the natural sciences, especially in the fields of astronomy, meteorology, seismology, terrestrial magnetism, mathematics, and biology. This narrative provides a history of the Jesuit institutions in which these discoveries were made, many of which were established in countries that previously had no scientific institutions whatsoever, thus generating a scientific and educational legacy that endures to this day. The article also focuses on the teaching and research that took place at Jesuit universities and secondary schools, as well as the order’s creation of a worldwide network of seventy-four astronomical and geophysical observatories where particularly important contributions were made to the fields of terrestrial magnetism, microseisms, tropical hurricanes, and botany.
