“De la percepción popular a la reflexión erudite: La transmisión de la ‘cultura de la catástrofe’ en la España del siglo XVIII”

Description

In this article, Alberola argues that while the first formal reflections on the physical nature of disasters appeared in the philosophical and scientific works of the Classical era, it was in the eighteenth century that these environmental ideas took shape and assumed fresh meaning, as new theories were born in light of the possibilities presented by the ideological and scientific advances of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
