Annali di storia della scienza.
Semiotik, Physik, Organik
Die Art und Weise, wie die Menschen über das alltägliche und zugleich so komplexe Wetter nachdenken, hat eine überraschende Geschichte. Bevor die Meteorologie um 1850 eine Physik der Atmosphäre wurde, gab es verschiedene Formen des Wetterwissens: eine, die nach Naturgesetzen forschte, aber auch eine, die Wetterzeichen sammelte und eine, die das Wetter als Teil eines natürlichen Organismus untersuchte. Diesen verschiedenen historischen Wissensformen und ihren Akteuren geht die vorliegende Studie auf den Grund. Untersucht wird, wie sich die moderne Meteorologie aus ihnen entwickelte – und auch, welches Wissen dabei verlorenging.

On Weather Signs
This text and commentary is the first to take account of all the manuscripts and to place the work in its historical and scientific context, as well as the first to describe its manuscript tradition.
Theophrastus of Eresus: On Weather Signs
On Weather Signs, traditionally ascribed to Theophrastus, contains the most complete list of such signs in antiquity and it was, in this or some very similar form, consulted by Aratus, Vergil (in Georgics I), and Pliny the Elder, as well as by many other authors throughout the Byzantine period. This edition is the first to take account of all the manuscripts and the commentary, the first in over a century, is on a far grander scale than earlier ones by Schneider (1818-21) and Wood (1894), listing almost all parallel texts for each sign. The introduction places the work in the context of its genre and for the first time lays out the details of its manuscript tradition.
