Description
The Real Instituto Asturiano opened at Gijón in 1794 to teach mathematics, navigation and mineralogy — subjects a maritime and mining province needed and which no Spanish institution then taught together. It was Jovellanos's project, and it stands as the clearest thing the Spanish Enlightenment actually built: not a proposal but a school, with a curriculum, a building and pupils. This notice sets out its plan and purpose for the Crown. Its later history is bleaker than its beginning, which makes the confidence of this account worth reading. This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1795 edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
