Resumen
El naturalista inglĆ©s Edwyn Reed (1841-1910) contribuyĆ³ significativamente a la formaciĆ³n de colecciones de historia natural en Chile, en el contexto de la organizaciĆ³n de los primeros museos de este tipo en el paĆs. Este artĆculo se propone analizar tres aspectos que evidencian este aporte; primero, su labor como naturalista en Chile, desarrollada en la senda marcada por otros cientĆficos extranjeros como Claudio Gay o Rodulfo Philippi; segundo, su trabajo en la enseƱanza de las ciencias y en la confecciĆ³n de gabinetes de historia natural para los liceos del paĆs y, por Ćŗltimo, su papel como director del Museo de Historia
Natural de ConcepciĆ³n y gestor de las primeras colecciones de la instituciĆ³n. En estos tres Ć”mbitos se percibe el aporte de Reed al desarrollo de las ciencias naturales en Chile y a la consolidaciĆ³n de redes globales de colaboraciĆ³n que fortalecieron los museos de Santiago, ValparaĆso y ConcepciĆ³n.
The English naturalist Edwyn Reed (1841-1910) made an important contribution to the formation of Natural History collections in Chile, in the context of the creation of the first museums of Natural History in the country. This article analyzes three aspects of his legacy: first, his work as a naturalist, developed from the work previously done by other foreign scientists such as Claude Gay or Rudolph Philippi; second, his work in making cabinets of Natural History for Public High Schools (Liceos) in Chile; and third, his role as the director of Natural History Museum of ConcepciĆ³n and manager of the first collections of the institution. These three aspects reveal Edwyn Reedās contribution to the development of the natural sciences in Chile and to the consolidation of a collaborative global network that strengthened the museums of Santiago, ValparaĆso, and ConcepciĆ³n.
