A questa si aggiungono il Palazzo Reale di Aranjuez e la Cattedrale di Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Asunci\u00f3n a Valladolid, incompiuta ma di riferimento per le cattedrali del Messico e di Lima. Tutti questi edifici furono costruiti sotto il patronato di Filippo II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ma si distinse anche in campi diversi dall'architettura. Uno di questi era quello militare, in quanto partecip\u00f2 a diverse campagne di Carlo V in Germania, nelle Fiandre e in Italia. L'altro era quello scientifico. Nel campo della geometria e della matematica, possiamo evidenziare il suo <em>Discorso sulla figura cubica<\/em>. Inoltre, Herrera divenne il primo direttore dell'Academia de Matem\u00e1ticas y Delineaci\u00f3n, fondata nel 1582 a Madrid e chiamata ufficialmente Academia Real Mathematica. Fu una delle prime istituzioni scientifiche in Europa e fu il precursore della Reale Accademia di Scienze Esatte, Fisiche e Naturali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Herrera promosse anche diverse imprese scientifiche per il re, dall'invenzione di strumenti di navigazione, cos\u00ec necessari in quei tempi di grandi relazioni marittime con le Indie, all'applicazione pratica della geometria e della matematica nella progettazione delle opere e nell'ottimizzazione dei processi di costruzione. Contribu\u00ec anche al campo dell'astronomia realizzando le illustrazioni per il trattato intitolato <em>Libro delle Armelle<\/em> presso l'Universit\u00e0 di Alcal\u00e1 de Henares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Herrera era un cattolico convinto e la sua fede si riflette nella monumentalit\u00e0 e nella sacralit\u00e0 delle sue opere. Il miglior esempio \u00e8 El Escorial, dedicato a San Lorenzo e concepito da Filippo II per celebrare la vittoria di San Quint\u00edn, avvenuta il 10 agosto, giorno della festa del santo. In questo modo, la sua vita combina in modo esemplare scienza e tecnologia con un profondo impegno di fede e di servizio alla monarchia spagnola.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juan de Herrera (1530 \u20131597) es una de las principales figuras del Renacimiento espa\u00f1ol.
