Antes y después del terremoto y tsunami de Lima de 1746: entre la comprensión científica y los imaginarios culturales en el mundo hispano
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-31) Alvarez Ponce, Victor Emilio
On October 28, 1746, an earthquake and tsunami destroyed the viceregal city of Lima and the port of Callao. The impact of that disaster on the Hispanic world was intertwined with the advancement of science and the understanding of nature. Various proposals from a progressive and academicist clergy tried to explain these phenomena. However, the society and a traditional faction of the Church in the face of these vulnerabilities reinforced, through fear, their own mechanisms of divine protection. This article proposes a parallel development between scientific understanding and cultural imaginaries about these catastrophes in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in the Western world.

De la noche al día: La experiencia sensorial conmemorativa en Lima post-terremoto (1747-1748)
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-30) Sánchez Rodríguez, Susy
This work examines the recovery of the city of Lima after the earthquake of October 28, 1746. The analysis brings together two components: commemorations and catastrophe. By following a sensorial approach, this study establishes the decrease in loudness manifested during the funeral ceremony of Felipe V held in the Peruvian capital in 1747. Likewise, the sensory metamorphosis displayed during the proclamation of the new king, Fernando VI, is presented. That event demonstrated the key role played by visual and olfactory experiences. By cleaning and illuminating the city, the viceregal authorities sought to achieve the sensorial and emotional recovery of the city to overcome the identification of the night with catastrophe.

Pericles en Lima: el virrey Manso de Velasco, el terremoto y su imagen pública
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-30) Barriga Calle, Irma
This article explores how the Viceroy Count of Superunda built an image of power in the wake of the 1746 earthquake and had painting as a magnificent ally that contributed to consolidate the absolutism of the regime. Faced with the aftermath of the disaster that befell the capital city, he had not only to restore the viceregal power, but also to reestablish the colonial pact, appealing to different converging discourses that would show him as an enlightened ruler and as a protective and magnanimous father. The strong persuasive power of painting played a key role in this.

El terremoto de 1746 y la gestación de la conspiración de Lima de 1750
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-30) O’Phelan Godoy, Scarlett
This article seeks to establish connections between the natural disaster of 1746 and the Lima conspiracy of 1750, as part of the mid-eighteenth century context, when social movements of a certain magnitude underwent a process of maturation. The distress that the earthquake caused in the poor population, as a result of hygienic deficiencies, led to outbreaks of social unrest. From the riots of the Indian potters in the Santa Ana neighborhood in 1747, to the plan forged three years later by Indians and other social actors involved in the conspiracy, collective fear was used as a control mechanism and an opportunity for insurrection.

Terremoto, reconstrucción y reforma. Las cofradías limeñas frente al seísmo de 1746
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-30) Lévano Medina, Diego
The earthquake of 1746 is an important milestone in Peruvian historiography because of its transcendence as a telluric movement and above all due to its impact from the economic, political and social points of view in the Peruvian society of the XVIII century. This article aims to provide a new vision through one of the most significant social bodies for the population of Lima at the time: the brotherhood. I address the role played by these corporations in the face of the earthquake and how they were affected materially and spiritually. Besides, how the process of material and administrati-ve reconstruction after the earthquake confronted them with the general reforms of these corporations promoted from the peninsula at the end of the 1750s.

Terremotos, mudanzas, reconstrucciones: lo que aprendimos en Lima (XVII-XVIII)
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-10-30) Scaletti-Cárdenas, Adriana
The earthquakes of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were decisive for Lima, the City of the Kings. From the perspective of the history of architecture, the moments after the earthquakes are particularly interesting, especially the reconstructions of the great viceregal capital. What was rebuilt and why? What materials and methods were chosen and for what reasons? Where and how were the new lots laid out? Why was the city not moved, as it happened in other similar cases? This paper reflects on these questions and on what the presence of such disasters meant in the evolution of Lima and Peruvian immovable material culture.
