RESUM Procurador reial i nobiliari, cosmògraf, joier, lapidari, mercader i escriptor, i al capdavall, un ciutadà català honrat, Ferrer (Vidreres, ~1445 – Blanes, 1529) va marxar de ben jove a la cort de Nàpols, al servei del rei Ferran i. Acabada aquesta peripècia italiana va tornar a Blanes al servei del vescomte de Cabrera i de Bas fins que va morir a la mateixa vila al 1529. Un seu criat, disset anys més tard, va editar uns papers esparsos que havia trobat a can Ferrer, les Sentèncias cathòlicas del diví poeta Dant florentí, compilades per lo prudentíssim mossèn Jaume Ferrer de Blanes[sic],

Abstract:

The first successful detection of gravitational waves (GWs) opened up a new window to study a realm of the most violent phenomena in the universe, such as coalescences of binary black holes (BH–BH), binary neutron stars (NS–NS), and mixed (BH–NS) systems, which are mostly inaccessible in the electromagnetic window. On the other hand, strong gravitational lensing of distant sources, such as galaxies and quasars, by other massive objects lying closer along the line of sight has become a powerful tool in cosmology and astrophysics. With the increasing sensitivity of the new generation of GW detec

The transposition of America’s founding narratives into cartographic images as presented in Le Testu’s Cosmographie is interpreted here as an act of translation lato sensu.

These moments of cognitive blending answered the needs of the early social catchment of the rites, which was predominantly freedmen and soldiers benefitting from the upward mobility of the thriving second century CE.

AbstractThis paper studies the group of men on the lower right side of Raphael's School of Athens. While the portrayal of Euclid is undisputed, the figures who are attached to him have not yet been firmly identified. In studying these figures as part of the intellectual fabric of the painting as a whole, it becomes clear that each of these figures has a meaningful role that cannot be deduced by mere guessing. The figure with his back to us is quite clearly the great mathematician-cosmographer Ptolemy of Alexandria. Not only because he wears a particular crown, but more importantly because the

Abstract Scholars have only recently started to study ilanot (lit., “trees”), the cosmographic genre constituted by the wedding of kabbalistic diagrams—the trees of the metonymic name—and large parchment sheets. Differences of kabbalistic opinion naturally found expression in these “maps of God.” The Sabbatean messianic movement of the 1660s and its prolonged and impactful afterlife produced, among other things, a number of distinctive kabbalistic opinions. For the most part, these innovations were tightly integrated with the speculations associated with “Lurianic” Kabbalah based on the teachi

Strong gravitational lensing of variable sources, such as quasars or supernovae, can be used to constrain cosmological parameters through a technique known as ‘time-delay cosmography’. Competitive constraints on the Hubble constant have been achieved with electromagnetic (EM) observations of lensed quasars and lensed supernovae. Gravitational wave (GW) astronomy may open up a new channel for time-delay cosmography with GW signal replacing the EM one. We highlight the similarities of using GW signals to be applied to time-delay cosmography compared with EM signal. We then discuss key difference

Numerous practices emerged, and knowledge circulated in several forms. The article

Abstract Time-delay cosmography can be used to infer the Hubble parameter H0 by measuring the relative time delays between multiple images of gravitationally-lensed quasars.

Such campaigns can hardly be performed by any telescope: many facilities are often over-subscribed with a large amount of observational requests to fulfill.

The article explores how cosmography circulated across disciplines, national borders, and social classes.

I draw a distinction between geography and cosmography in arguing that the process of ‘disenchantment’ was an uneven and complex process.

Abstract:

The article focuses on two Dutch doctors – the Boate brothers, Arnold (1606-1653) and Gerard (1604-1650) – medical graduates of Leiden University who moved to London in 1630 to work as practising physicians. The brothers contributed to diverse forms of knowledge as part of the new science, including agriculture, anatomy, entomology, geography, industrial history, medicine, metallurgy, mineralogy and theology, but are known primarily for Gerard’s posthumously published ground-breaking book, Irelands Naturall History (1652) for which Arnold did the spadework. The Boates collaborated on some of t

Abstract:

The article explores the sources from which Richard Hakluyt assembled his Divers Voyages (1582) and the circumstances of the book’s publication. It then places Hakluyt’s work in the context of his religious cosmography and his belief that histories of the discovery of the world should be those of eyewitnesses and unmediated, contrary to the practice of certain other cosmographers.

Abstract:

The article analyses Alonso de la Vera Cruz’s ideas on cosmography, including both celestial and geographical conceptions, displayed in De coelo from his Physica speculatio (1557). This book introduced in New Spain the hegemonic natural knowledge of the time as well as alternative ideas. At the same time, living for years in the New World, de la Vera Cruz drew on his own experience when discussing the qualities of the Americas and their inhabitants. Unlike the imperial cosmography of the time, he valued not only the natural qualities of those lands but also their inhabitants, which had importa

Abstract:

The article examines the circulation of cosmographical knowledge as a result of some of the less prominent, lower-class trading company travellers, often through romance or romance tropes. It focalizes some romance strategies, values and intermediaries – notably Sir John Mandeville, and the figures of the travelling hero – used to convey cosmographical knowledge in narrative form. William Warner’s Albions England (notably the 1596 edition) and John Cartwright’s The Preachers Travels (1611) are the main textual focus, each comprising a different kind of approach to cosmography and travel writin

Abstract:

Systems where multiple sources at different redshifts are strongly lensed by the same deflector allow one to directly investigate the evolution of the angular diameter distances as a function of redshift, and thus to learn about the geometry of the Universe. We present measurements of the values of the total matter density, $ m $, and of the dark energy equation of state parameter, $w$, through a detailed strong lensing analysis of SDSS J0100+1818, a group-scale system at $z=0.581$ with five lensed sources, from $z=1.698$ to $4.95$. We take advantage of new spectroscopic data from the Multi Un

Abstract:

Abstract This work is concerned to study the bouncing nature of the universe for an isotropic configuration of fluid $\mathcal{T}_{\alpha\beta}$ and Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric scheme. This work is carried out under the novel $f(\mathcal{G},\mathcal{T}_{\alpha \beta} \mathcal{T}^{\alpha \beta})$ gravitation by assuming a specific model i.e, $f(\mathcal{G},\mathcal{T}^2)=\mathcal{G}+\alpha \mathcal{G}^2+2\lambda \mathcal{T}^2$ with $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are constants, serving as free parameters. The term $\mathcal{T}^2$ served as an inclusion in the gravitational action and
