本文对16世纪定居马尼拉的圣奥古斯汀
教派中最重要的神职人员著名宇宙学家、数
学家和天文学家马丁·德·拉达及其图书收
藏进行探究。马丁·德·拉达在墨西哥和菲
律宾度过了15年之后,他在1575年跟随西班
牙考察队前往中国,并撰写了极具影响力的
Relación 来记录此次旅行。从其目前仅存的14封
马尼拉、墨西哥和西班牙发现的其同时代的
通信中谈到拉达的信件中,以及从其同伴米
格尔·德·罗亚卡对 Relación 的描述中,我们
可以发现拉达的知识兴趣所在以及其图书收
藏的内容:他在书中谈到墨西哥和亚洲;他
随身带到亚洲的科学类书籍;在前往中国之
前以及其后他所绘制的地图;他在中国所购
买的书籍及其用途;以及在其去世之前仍在
筹备的作品。所有这些都使拉达具有强大的
知识分子形象。这也使其完全可以与同时期
的耶稣会成员利玛窦进行比较。
This article will explore the library of the most important of the 16th century Manila based Augustinians, fray Martin de Rada, a well known cosmographer, mathematician and astronomer. After spending more than five years in Mexico, and ten in the Philippines, in 1575 he was assigned to the first Spanish expedition to China and wrote a highly influential Relación about it.
From his own letters —14 of them extant—, the letters of his contemporaries about Rada —from Manila, Mexico and Spain—, and the Relación of his fellow traveler to China, Miguel de Loarca, we are able to disentangle his main intellectual
interests and the contents of his library: what he wrote —both in Mexico and Asia—, the significance of the scientific works that he took with him to Asia, the importance of the Chinese maps with which he worked while in Manila —before and
after his travel to China—, what books he bought in China and what use did he make of them, and the last works in which he was working before his death. This gives Rada a strong intellectual profile that has to be compared with that of his contemporary, the Jesuit Matteo Ricci.
