The Italian Riviera was, from the second half of the nineteenth century to the Second World War, one of the most famous, elitist, climatic, winter, international tourist destinations. In Bordighera, in particular, the British community was so important that a typical English ‘environmental bubble’ was created, and still today there is not only physical, but also cultural evidence of it. Among the latter, the polyglot Journal de Bordighera (1883–1935), a large number of issues of which are still held at the local Museum Bicknell, is the privileged witness of the carefree life of the tourists spending their winter on the Riviera in that period. One of its weekly columns, the ‘Bulletin Météorologique’, contains precise data, collected by the tourists themselves, about the temperatures of the resort, while comments on the special climate of the region are scattered across different issues. That information is unique for Bordighera because, even if the location has always been appreciated for its mild climate, surprisingly no other meteorological data have ever been recorded for such a long period. The aim of this paper is twofold: to reconstruct this historical climatological series, which appears to have reasonable historical reliability, if verified with the series of other weather stations of the Riviera, and to consider the observations about the climate published by the tourist meteorologists on the Journal de Bordighera as a positioned way to observe and to narrate the climate of the Riviera.

从 19 世纪下半叶到第二次世界大战，意大利里维埃拉是最著名的、精英主义的、气候宜人的冬季国际旅游目的地之一。特别是在博尔迪盖拉，英国社区非常重要，以至于形成了典型的英国“环境泡沫”，而且今天仍然不仅有物质上的证据，而且还有文化上的证据。在后者中，多语种Journal de Bordighera（1883-1935），其中大量的问题仍然保存在当地的比克内尔博物馆，是那个时期在里维埃拉度过冬天的游客们无忧无虑的生活的特权见证。它的每周专栏之一“气象公报”包含游客自己收集的关于度假村温度的精确数据，而对该地区特殊气候的评论则分散在不同的问题上。该信息对于博尔迪盖拉来说是独一无二的，因为即使该地区一直因其温和的气候而受到赞赏，但令人惊讶的是，在如此长的时间内从未记录过其他气象数据。本文的目的有两个：重建这个看起来具有合理历史可靠性的历史气候学序列，Journal de Bordighera作为观察和叙述里维埃拉气候的一种定位方式。
