Autor: Domeyko, Ignacy
Rok: 1802-1889 Ignacy Domeyko or Domejko, pseudonym: Żegota (Spanish: Ignacio Domeyko, Spanish pronunciation: [iɣˈnasjo ðoˈmeiko]; born near Nesvizh, now Karelichy district, Belarus, 31 July 1802 – 23 January 1889, Santiago de Chile) was a Polish-Belarusian geologist, mineralogist and educator. Domeyko spent most of his life, and died, in his adopted country, Chile.After a youth passed in partitioned Commonwealth of Poland, Belarus and Lithuania, Domeyko participated in the Polish-Belarusian November 1830 Uprising against the Russian Empire. Upon its suppression, he was forced into exile and spent part of his life in France (where he had gone with fellow Philomath, Polish poet Adam Mickiewicz) before eventually settling in Chile, of which he became a citizen.He lived some 50 years in Chile and made major contributions to the study of that country's geography, geology and mineralogy. His observations on the circumstances of poverty-stricken miners and of their wealthy exploiters had a profound influence on those who would go on to shape Chile's labor movement.Domeyko is seen as having had close ties to several countries and thus in 2002, when UNESCO organized a series of commemorations of the 200th anniversary of his birth, he was referred to as "a citizen of the world". |
