Title: | El discurso judiciario sobre Don Sebastián y el cometa de 1577 | Other Titles: | The astrological forecasts about Don Sebastian and the comet of 1577 | Authors: | Usunáriz, Jesús M. | Keywords: | Cometas;Astrología;Portugal;1577;Don Sebastián;Comets;Astrology;Portugal;1577;Don Sebastian | Issue Date: | 2015 | Publisher: | Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra | Abstract: | El cometa de 1577 ha pasado a la Historia asociado al rey Don Sebastián de Portugal
(1578) y a los ‘pronósticos’ y valoraciones que se hicieron antes y después de su
muerte. Además, los autores de estos trabajos participaron de los debates científicos del
momento sobre la naturaleza de los cometas. No obstante, muchas de estas crónicas y
relaciones que dieron noticia del paso del cometa contenían una intencionalidad política
de justificación de los acontecimientos que se siguieron, especialmente de la unión de
Portugal a la Monarquía Hispánica. The comet of 1577 has been associated with the history and the death of the King Sebastian of Portugal (1578), and the ‘forecasts’ and assessments that were made before and after his death. Furthermore, the authors of these publications participated in the scientific debates of the moment about the nature of comets. However, many of these chronicles and spanish news («relaciones de sucesos») about the passage of the comet had a political purpose to justify the future events, especially the union of Portugal to the Spanish monarchy. |
