Resumo(s)
El geógrafo portugués Orlando Ribeiro participó
en la Conferencia Regional Latinoamericana de la Unión
Geográfica Internacional (UGI), que se realizó en México
en 1966, para la cual preparó una comunicación acerca de
paisajes rurales comparados de América. Su participación
en las diversas actividades y excursiones programadas por la
conferencia, así como los viajes complementarios que hizo
en este país, dieron origen a un cuaderno de campo inédito
que presentamos en este texto. En paralelo, sintetizamos el
extenso acopio fotográfico producido en este viaje, al igual
que los principales trabajos posteriores en los cuales Ribeiro incorporó su aprendizaje de la geografía mexicana, los
cuales incidieron en la fisionomía de los paisajes agrícolas,
así como en algunas de las características fundamentales de
las ciudades y del urbanismo de los países iberoamericanos. Este conjunto de documentos escritos e iconográficos
constituyeron un testimonio muy relevante de la geografía
tropical de paradigma vidaliano concretizada por la “escuela
geográfica de Lisboa”, al mismo tiempo que representa un
excelente ejemplo de la práctica de una geografía fuertemente cimentada en el trabajo de campo, tal como Orlando
Ribeiro efectuaba a partir del modelo propuesto por la
escuela francesa de geografía. La lectura del cuaderno de
campo de México y de los textos de Ribeiro posteriores a
este viaje constituyen también indicios fundamentales para
la reconstrucción de las principales redes de sociabilidad
científica del geógrafo portugués, en las cuales Brasil y los
geógrafos brasileños constituyen una pieza fundamental.
The Portuguese geographer Orlando Ribeiro participated in the Latin American Regional Conference of the International Geographical Union (IGU) held in Mexico in 1966, for which he prepared a communication on comparative rural landscapes of America. His participation in the various activities and excursions programmed by the Conference, as well as the complementary trips he have made in this country, gave rise to a field notebook, which we present in this text. At the same time, we will synthesize the extensive photographic collection gathered during this trip, as well as the main subsequent works in which Ribeiro incorporated his learning of Mexican geography. These works focused both on the physiognomy of agricultural landscapes and on some of the fundamental characteristics of cities and urban planning in Ibero-American countries. This set of written and iconographic documents is a very relevant testimony of the “tropical geography” of the Vidalian paradigm carried out by the “Lisbon geographic school”, while at the same time representing an excellent example of the practice of a geography strongly grounded in fieldwork, as Orlando Ribeiro practiced from the model proposed by the French school of Geography. The reading of Ribeiro’s Mexico field notebook, as well as the texts subsequent to this trip, are also fundamental evidence for the reconstitution of the main networks of scientific sociability of the Portuguese geographer, in which Brazil –and the Brazilian geographers– represent a key piece.
