It has been called “the most singular centaur that religion and science have ever produced” (Franz Boll). Astrology as a cultural form has puzzled and fascinated generations of humankind. It reached its apogee in the European Renaissance, when it flourished in literature, political expression, medicine, art, and all the other areas of endeavor catalogued in this unique collection. Brill’s Companion to Renaissance Astrology brings together a wide array of expertise from around the globe to explain the method and matter of this cultural form, including the Arab and Classical heritage, the medieval tradition, the clash with organized religion, the influence on knowledge and the competition with newly emerging ways of knowing, summarizing the current state of research and suggesting new paths. Contributors include: Giuseppe Bezza, Dieter Blume, Claudia Brosseder, Brendan Dooley, William Eamon, Ornella Faracovi, Hiro Hirai, Wolfgang Hübner, Eileen Reeves, Steven Vanden Broecke, and Graziella Federici Vescovini.
Suicide streak among veterans from Afghanistan: Undercover investigation in the German army by Evi and Max, those weird private detectives. Last year, among the rich and beautiful at the European Planet Festival, the young pastry seller was looking for a serial killer. Successful! Now she sits there with a big belly in her eighth month, lots of criminal records and a former soldiar stranded here at her side, a man with serious quirks who feels right at home in Upper Lusatia, the furthest east of Germany. Over and done with, the dream of the Golden West. Then Gwiazdek shows up. The Europol commissioner from Poland beckons with a special assignment. Extended suicides of veterans being cared for in wellness courses. Influence of enemy agents or friendly fire from within the ranks? Political influence slows down the criminal investigation department and the Military Counter-Intelligence Service is getting nowhere. An undercover job for Max. He can cavort among old comrades. But what the hell does his pregnant girlfriend Evi want to do there?
English summary: 300 letters from three years document the variety of Melanchthon's activities and relationships. In the wake of longer absences in the previous years, he rededicated himself predominantly to his teaching duties and published works on rhetoric, dialectic, Aristotelian politics and mathematics. This volume contains the programmatic prefaces to these works. Moreover, Melanchthon had to publish the Augsburg Confession and its Apology. His tireless struggle to find a satisfactory formulation of the doctrine of justification finds echoes in the correspondence of the time. Shortly after the completion of the Apology, Melanchthon published the commentary on Romans (1532), which Mela...
Historically, the idea that the stars and planets influence the Earth and its inhabitants has proved powerful in almost every culture, offering an important context for the use of mathematical and astronomical instruments. In the past, however, historians of astronomy have paid relatively little attention to astrology and other “non-scientific” topics, while historians of astrology have tended to concentrate on the analysis of texts rather than surviving artefacts, scientific instruments in particular. Heaven and Earth United is an attempt to redress the balance through an exploration of the astrological contexts in which instruments once found a place. Contributors are Silke Ackermann, Marisa Addomine, Jim Bennett, Marvin Bolt, Louise E. Devoy, Richard Dunn, Seb Falk, Stephen Johnston, Richard L. Kremer, Günther Oestmann, Josefina Rodríguez-Arribas, Petra G. Schmidl, Giorgio Strano, and Sylvia Sumira.
'The Fated Sky' looks at famous figures and important historical events that were influenced by astrology.
