We could see the rise and set of the planets starting with the Sun. Tamil had many thoughts and opinions on the rise and set of those planets. They had calculated not only Sun’s orbit but also various other stars, planets and their orbital relations as well. Through Sangam literature, one could know that there were experts in calculating the celestial bodies. Subbu Reddiyar explains the poem from ‘puRanaanuuRu’ that there were people who had mastered for years and could tell the everyday measures of ‘the law of the sun and its movement, the orbit surrounding by its movement, the direction of t

Tian was not a high god, but quite literally, the sky. The sky was the location of the Shang Di and the other ancestral spirits, so it came to serve as a euphemism for Shang Di or, more broadly, for Shang Di and all the celestial phenomena and spirits who were under hi

AbstractThe Sumerian tale of Inana and Shukaletuda recounts how the goddess Inana is raped by a homely gardener upon whom she seeks and ultimately finds revenge. Though this general plot has long been understood, certain elements of the story have remained largely unexplored. Previous scholarship has often suggested that within Inana and Shukaletuda, the goddess Inana is often described in her astral manifestation (e.g. S. Kramer 1961, 117; K.

This study explores the reception and ideological significance of one of the most widely read ‘bestsellers’ of early modern Europe, the late medieval Spanish novel-in-dialogue Celestina by Fernando de Rojas (1499). Celestina’s reception has been traced through a variety of methods and sources; however, no single study has yet sought a broader ideological and comparative interpretation of its appeal. I argue that Celestina continued to be meaningful because it engaged with one of the central ideological preoccupations of the later Middle Ages and Renaissance, namely the human condition, concept

Abstract:
AbstractDuring the early modern period, astronomy underwent a profound transformation in the way it was taught, as the response of an enlarged readership took on more and more importance. This change notably concerned the use of images and diagrams. The Theoricae planetarum, especially Peuerbach’s Theoricae novae planetarum, are a privileged example in this respect, for they served a particularly large range of functions. They were mnemonic tools and visual glossaries, and an essential element in Peuerbach’s pedagogical approach. They had a documentary role, as they gave plausible representations of the celestial spheres; they could be used as proofs of the soundness of a “theory,” or could simply help to follow a geometrical demonstration. Some of them were small-scale models designed to serve as tools for the mind to better grasp the complex combination of movements in what was then called machina mundi. All these figures, and their power to exercise the mind, were well suited to a period when more and more astronomers were involved in imagining, drawing, and comparing hypothetical models of planetary movements.

Abstract:
Hinton’s writing on higher dimensions influenced artists as well as writers. Chapter 19 looks at how higher-dimensional geometry influenced the development of the visual arts in the twentieth century. Hinton’s influence was both direct through his own books and through the spiritual movement known as the Theosophists who latched onto his more mystical ideas. The cubists were the first modern artists to abandon the use of traditional perspective, and they were rapidly followed by other art movements. A number of the pioneers of abstract art were influenced by the Theosophists, including Kandinsky, Mondrian, and Malevich. Marcel Duchamp played a key role in determining the future direction of the visual arts, and some of his major works were developed around ideas of higher dimensions. These include Nude Descending a Staircase and Bride Stripped Bare By Her Bachelors, Even. Duchamp also led the way toward today’s conceptual art.

Abstract:
This chapter introduces the reader to the celestial sphere, or the Earth's surface. By rotating the sphere, the motions of the heavens can be simulated. There are three features of celestial motion that came to be associated with Aristotle: all objects move in circles; they travel at constant speeds on those circles; the Earth is at the center of the celestial sphere. The chapter shows how the movements of stars and planets on the sphere's surface can be determined by setting up a system of equatorial coordinates. It also explains how the celestial sphere can be set in motion through the day, and how Hipparchus of Rhodes endeavored to determine the eccentricity of the Sun's orbit. Finally, it discusses spherical geometry, with emphasis on finding bounds on the sides and angles of a spherical triangle.

Exploitation section has been defined based on the forecast approach of the astrologer on individual horoscope and happenings. General prediction of the astrologer is based on the movement of the celestial objects in cyclic mode. Exploitation segment is designed based on the prediction of the astrologer on individual. Each individual owns specific horoscope based on their birth date and time. Astrologer will see in-depth movements of celestial objects in the individual horoscope.

Abstract:
Abstract The Maya were excellent mathematicians and superb astronomers. They invented the concept of zero; they devised innovative methods of measuring and dating time; and they painstakingly tracked the movements of celestial bodies. The sophistication of Maya arithmetic, the exactitude of Maya records of planetary movements, and the orderly logic of the Maya calendar reveal the importance of time in the Maya view of the universe To the ancient Maya, time was a dynamic concept by which temporal existence was raised to historic importance, meshed with natural rhythms, and was imbued by spiritual significance. When conceived as a rational framework, time allowed the Maya to order the sequence of daily events, to recollect the past, and to anticipate the future. When conceived as an active structure, time permitted the Maya to discern the shapes of physical space, to measure the cycles of the natural world, and to comprehend the meaning of the supernatural realms. As an evocative metaphor, time furnished the Maya with opportunities to encounter other gods and ancestors. By formulating time in an extraordinary creative series of calendrical and astronomical cycles, the Maya intertwined virtually all aspects of existence into a harmonious pattern.

Abstract:
The “Copernican Revolution” denotes the change from an earth-centered picture of the universe to a sun-centered one, and it had repercussions far beyond astronomy. It began with the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus and his publication of On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres in 1543. The traditional geocentric, or “Ptolemaic,” picture had been heavily modified since the days of Ptolemy, but Copernicus was the first to suggest discarding it entirely. Copernicus’s new picture offered several advantages for understanding and calculating planetary movements, but the idea of a sun-centered universe with the earth in motion contradicted the common-sense perception of an unmoving earth as well as the dominant school of Aristotelian physics. It also contradicted several passages in the Bible that seemed to show an unmoving Earth, most famously Joshua’s bidding the sun to stand still.
