Abstract
THE REV. EMMANUEL NAVABRO NEUMANN, S.J., died on January 30, 1941, according to the Memorabilia Societatis Jesu of December 1941 (delayed on account of the War). The greater part of his research studies and labours was spent in the field of geodynamics. He operated observatories, issued bulletins, developed seismographs and published more than three hundred separate articles on seismology. With other Jesuit men of science he was exiled from Spain by the anti-clerical Government in 1931, and resided in Italy for some time. On August 11, 1938, the Cartuja (Granada) Observatory was restored to the Jesuits and Father Navarro Neumann was present. He was hi poor health and experienced much physical suffering for many years, and in 1939 retired from active scientific work.
