Description
Summary:The works on the Chilean Jesuit Manuel Lacunza have dealt with biographical, theological and editorial aspects, which have focused on the eschatological themes of The Coming of the Messiah in Glory and Majesty and in the religious ideas of its author. In addition, it is added to this that the researchers have approached the different editions of the work and the reception that it had both in Europe and in America, leaving a gap in relation to the scientifi c ideas present in it, which are contained in the Third volume Therefore, in this article we will address the astronomical references included in the theological treatise of Lacunza, which was the science that the Chilean Jesuit was fond of during his stay in Chile as in Italy, from the perspective of the history of science. For this purpose science and its con- nection with religion in the thought of the Jesuit theologian will be analyzed, proposing that there was no contradiction or confl ict in both ways.
