Full textThe importance of the Commentaries on the Sentences of Peter Lombard for the history of science has been well-established for a long time. Although they were written by theologians, those texts deal with many topics coming under natural philosophy. The question of celestial influence is a good proof. The Sentences commentators address it in two ways. On the one hand, they deal with the « normal » influence, that of the spheres, planets and stars which are studied in the medieval astronomical writings. Our authors describe with scrutiny the role of the celestial bodies within the system of causes, they list and classify the effects which they produced, show the limit of their power. While distancing themselves from the astrologers, they also assert those celestial bodies are signs to be interpreted. On the other hand, the Sentences commentators want to grasp an « extraordinary » celestial influence, that of some celestial bodies, whose existence is postulated by the theologians. They seek to know if the Empyrean Heaven, the last sphere of the universe where the Blessed will live, act on terrestrial bodies. They strive to understand if, after the Last Judgement, the stars and the planets, whose motion will cease and whose light will grow, will still produce phenomena on our inferior world. Our study pursues a double goal: first, it aims to analyze the two notions, that of the influence of the astronomical heavens and that of the influence of the theological heavens; then, it aims to understand how these two notions are articulated. Is the problem of the causality of « abnormal » superior bodies solved according to the conception of the « ordinary » celestial causality at a given period? Or conversely is this theory able to evolve so that it may include the borderline cases of the Empyrean Heaven and the Post-Apocalyptic heavens? This questioning will enable us to tackle the complex issue of the relationship between theology and physics, between faith and science

Full textAstrological annual predictions form a consistent literary genre. In recent years, interest in thesematerials among Middle Ages and Early Modern Era historians has been increasing. This thesisspecially adresses the spreading of this kind of predictions in Latin-speaking Europe between1405 and 1484, several centuries after they are firstly mentioned in theoretical sources. Our firstpart explores the internal dialectics of these prognostications, and in particular the strictly-followedmethods of astrological calculation provided as support to the authors’ scientific pretensions. Thegeneral context of production, and the social background of these authors, form a second part ofthe thesis. The third part considers the contemporary reception of these astrological predictions,as well as their unlikely transmission until our days in spite of the genre’s ephemeral nature. Acomprehensive catalogue of the 111 handwritten and 84 incunable latin prognostications preservedin public collections, as well as the 64 astrologers potentially identified as their authors, completethis study. Finally, we offer a critical edition, with French translation and commentary, of the threeknown predictions for year 1405 which, in spite of their individual features, constitute model samplesof the genre

Full textIn fifteenth-century Florence, the philosopher Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) wrote the De vita coelitus comparanda, i.e. “how to capture life from the heavens”, which would later form the last and third book of a larger volume titled De vita libri tres. The latter exposes the means to preserve the health and extend the life of man of letters afflicted by their intense studies. The former deals with the apotropaic and prophylactic power of the talismans also called “astrological images”, following a learned concept which appeared in Western Europe in the mid-thirteenth century, and focuses on the materiality, form and appearance of these images. Ficino hence develops a new reflexion that focuses on the process of making which seems to echo new artistic theories devised during the same period in Florence. Ficino redeems the figure of the ancient magus by enhancing man’s creative power and his status as a philosopher and a humanist. The assumption of a late influence of Ficino’s neoplatonic thought on the arts in the sixteenth century has led to several studies but its genesis and its potential links with the artistic world and, especially his fellows artist-theoreticians, remained to be fully investigated. This thesis aims therefore to investigate the role of the artistic references within Ficino’s magic thought, the influence of contemporary ideas on the art practice upon his conception of “astrological image”, and the nature of specific artworks typical of fifteenth-century Florence, which seem to respond to both a magical and an artistic purpose
Maraldi, Elisa <1986>. "Le stelle di Beatrice. Astronomia e astrologia nella "Vita Nova"." Doctoral thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2015. http://amsdottorato.unibo.it/7071/.
Full textThere are two places in Dante’s Vita Nova in which the poet count up the time of the main episodes of the love story between himself and Beatrice with astronomical references. These scientific notions conceal an astrological meaning, connected with the retourn, at every anniversary, of the influence of the Gemini astrological sign. Gemini is the Dante’s sign, as the poet assume in the Comedy: the pilgrim’s invocation to the constellation of Gemini, whose influence gave him his genius (Par. XXII, 112-123), reserve to astrology, through the leitmotif of personal qualities instilled by the natal star, the task of enhancing the genius of Dante, in order to vindicate the role of the divinely inspired poet. The importance of this sign is evident in Vita Nova: Gemini was probably Beatrice’s sign too, as the poet seems suggest in VN 1, 3 [II, 2], if we consider that, when Dante met Beatrice for the first time (in 1274), she wasn’t nine years old yet («quasi»). The colour of Beatrice’s dress, «sanguigno» (VN 1, 4; II, 3), seems reference to her sanguineous temperament, so it confirms her affinity with Gemini. Than, Gemini sign retourns in VN 19, 4 [XXIX, 1], the chapter of Beatrice’s death. She died on the 8 June 1290, so her death is under the Gemini too. All the events in Vita Nova are conducts by stars, so in this book Dante shows the importance of the influential heavens in the human life.
Verardi, Donato. "La science et les secrets de la nature à Naples à la Renaissance : la magie naturelle de Giovan Battista Della Porta." Thesis, Paris Est, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PESC0091/document.
Full textThis thesis focuses on the scientific and philosophical though of Giovan Battista Della Porta (1535-1615). In particular, the purpose of my thesis is to analyse and “reconstruct” the notion of “secret of nature” in Della Porta’s philosophy and in his project for the reformation of natural magic.As I have shown here, Della Porta’s rationalization of the “secret of nature” is connected either with demonological issues and with astrological problems.The thesis is divided into four parts. In the first part, the historiography and reception of the philosophical thought of Della Porta are discussed. The accent is put on the meaning of natural magic with particular regard to the role he assigns to demons. Here I show that the issue is still debated in the recent historiography. The second part introduces the relationship between Della Porta’s thought and the neapolitan aristotelianism. I proposed, here, to understand the notion of “secret of nature” in light of the debates related to the knowledge of “singular”. I have shown that the matter of the statute of natural magic is related to the discussions on the medical epistemology and on the Avicennean conception of forma speciei. The third part deals with the matter of causality and the debate about astrology. Also, it analyses the meaning of the concept of “sympathy”, interpreted as celestial influence. I have shown that Della Porta reinterprets the concept of “sympathy” of Ficino as well as the notion of “astrological image” of Albert the Great. In the fourth part, I studied the relationship between the concepts of “friendship” and “sympathy” in the astrological debate. Then, I studied the principle of “similarity” in Della Porta’s phisiognomy books and in his research methodology about “secrets of nature”. I have shown that this research methodology is based on a concept of causality not concerning the substance, but the “accidents”, i.e. the “individual particularities”: the movement, the color, the figure, etc. According to Della Porta, the knowledge of the singular is based on these “individual particularities”

Full textSince the XVth century appear in Europe parodies of prophetic texts, most of them astrological, called pronostications. Having studied the texts which inspire these parodies and their polemical context, we analyse the whole parodies, delimitating within a great diversity coherent groups : mock calendars, prophetical enigmas, mock pronostications and satirical pronostications. The search then focuse on the most represented and the richest group, the satirical pronostications, to understand the relations between satire and parody, especially the construction of an original satirical ethos and the setting of a negative poetic founded on truism and ambiguity. We try at last to describe the evolution of the texts all along the XVIth century towards their links with profane theatre, isolating between the satirical pronostications a group of texts committed in the reform polemic and which struggles with censorship in the 1530's

Full textBased on the author’s personal ethnographic research on sickness-related conceptions and practices in an Arakanese context, this thesis examines the relationship between the individual and the cosmos with particular emphasis on the plural, hybrid and integrating nature of such relationship.This approach, rejecting any form of categorisation, represents an innovation in the context of Burma and suggests that both Burmese and Western medicine, as well as Buddhism, astrology, spirit cult, etc. form a single system of conceptualisation and management of the state of health as a fruit of the relationship with the cosmos. The central point of this structure – its hybridity and plasticity – relies on the fact that the links between the various components are hierarchical and complementary. The hierarchy, notably the hegemony of Buddhism at various levels (conceptual, practical and of values) is counterbalanced by the fact that no component is enough to cope with all factors; there is always something missing, a remainder that other components can conceive and manage. The integrative nature of the system is showed through the example of western medicine, whose integration has produced some changes in the previous system.This thesis is structured in five parts : the first part is dedicated to sickness related conceptions, the second one to the practices the villagers rely upon in order to maintain the balance at all levels, while the third and the forth parts examine different kind of healers, their trainings, their (preventive and healing) practices and their social status; finally in the last one, health seeking behaviours of sick people are discussed

Full textThe research proposes to study the development of the dialectical treatises during the Renaissance. In order to achieve this objective a path was chosen, going from Lorenzo Valla to Pierre de La Ramée. These authors are approached not only as offering a reflexion on language, but rather to detect the conception of the intellect they highlight. Having said that, it will not be the case to simply reinsert these authors, central for the understanding of the topic, in the actual swarm of dialectical treatises during the time, but rather to grasp the reflexion concerning the operations of the intellect, that animate them. During the Renaissance, Dialectic and Rhetoric will be brought closer and their cooperation worked in many different ways, the text will thus discuss how the analysis of the language set forth during the time, strongly supported by the Latin of classic authors, will be shifted toward a topic of the intellect, dedicated to multiples forms of reasoning. This 'dialectical' movement was not an uniform one, nevertheless, the works here consulted can be placed within the framework of a growing participation of the theory of knowledge in the discussions about dialectic, understood as the science of sciences

Full textIn Late Antiquity, when ancient polytheism was being shaped into new forms and when multicultural interactions were a main feature of Mediterranean societies, astrology, magic, and philosophy were brought into close, and sometimes blurry, contacts. In this respect, the Papyri Graecae Magicae (PGM) allow to study how the heavenly realm is incorporated into ritual recipes. This topic is particularly relevant for the history of religions, the history of science and ritual anthropology. A thorough investigation actually demonstrates that “magic” was not much concerned with Hellenistic astrology as a cosmological or technological paradigm even if it could occasionally rely on astrological notions, which were then reshaped to correspond to “magical” lore. However, the way rituals were written down denotes a major trend in religious and philosophical history: divinatory procedures are given new features which, along with Neoplatonic theurgy, provide evidence for the appearance of mysticism as a new religious imaginary. The “magician”’s universe is therefore a world by itself and is connected to ancient cosmology as well as to contemporary intellectual history

Full textIf in India astrology is primarily associated to Brahmins, in Tamil Ndu its most renowned specialists are the Valluvar, members of a caste that was long considered as untouchable. Drawing upon fieldwork conducted between 2006 and 2008 in several districts of Tamil Nadu and in the Union Territory of Pondicherry, this thesis examines the hereditary occupation and professional identity of the Valluvar astrologers in this region of South India to that effect, this study is based on the exploration and analysis of the different professional skills of these astrologers which, combined together, create what is commonly called "the Valluvar art of foretelling". Throughout this thesis the possession of a scholarly litterature and its role in the process of legitimisation of the professional identity of the Valluvar will be explored. We will also show how this knowledge is put into practice during the astrological consultation, through the study of divinatory speech and its manipulation, as well as through the therapeutic prescriptions the astrologers can aither establish or accomplish. We will then deal with the transformations of this traditional occupation through the analysis of the dynamics which today deeply affect the hereditary transmission of knowledge and skills within the specialists of the caste

Full textMichel de nostredame (1503-1566), better known under the name of nostradamus, doctor of the faculty of medicine of montpellier, left prophetic works, entitled presages and centuries, written in four line stanzas, and two texts in prose. The presages were published in the almanachs of 1555 to 1567; they were intended for general public and their prophetic scope acclaim hardly went beyond these said years. The centuries were consecutively published in 1555 and 1557, the last three in 1558, and were primarily intended for a literary public. The first text published in prose, which was to serve as a preface to the first centuries was a letter addressed by nostradamus to his son cesar; the second is an epistle dedicated to king henry second for the last three centuries. We know of 141 presages which were grouped together by j. A. Chavigny in 1594, along with 942 four line stanzas from centuries; this is of a total of 1000 quoted by nostradamus. They are to be found in the publication of benoist rigaud (1568). It is probable that the 58 six line stanzas published by vincent sceve in 1605 make up the total despite their beeing published at a later date. The author of this research suggest that, before any remark with supposed occult references, a readins such as that agreed for the authors of "poesie scientifique" as defined by a-m schmidt should be done

Full textThe zodiac has been known since ancient times but it was the Greek astronomers of the Hellenistic period who determined forms after the mythological figures and animals. The zodiac iconography inherited by the 8th and 9th century arabic-persian astronomers was largely inspired by ancient traditions. They subsequently updated it. Indeed, the iconography of the zodiac constellations had its codifier: the astronomer Abd al-rahman al-suff, then in the service of the buyid prince Adud al-dawla, who wrote “the book of the fixed stars”. The purpose of this iconography was mainly didactic, allowing constellations in the sky to be identified, hence a number of features characterizing the figures in all the copies made until the 19th century. A second type of zodiac appeared in the manuscripts starting in the 13th century: the astrological zodiac, which had a radically different purpose. The astrological zodiac was then used by astrologers to elaborate horoscopes but was often found in late 12th century east Anatolia or Persian metallic objects. Like the manuscripts as of the 14th century, these objects offer two types of iconography: - the first shows the signs conjugated with the planets in their various forms of associations, the most frequent being the planet associated to its house sign. - the second, frequently seen in miniatures starting in the 14th century, offers a new zodiac, purged so to speak, in which only some of the signs are perfectly associated to their planet: these are mixed series. We have underlined the major role of a focal point from which, we believe, a good part of the arabic-persian astrological zodiac may have originated: the city of Harran, in east turkey, whose inhabitants worshiped stars until the 9th century. The practice of the cult survived until the city was destroyed by the Mongols in the 13th century. It was at this time that this so distinctive iconography of the planets and the zodiac started appearing and spreading. The zodiac is not restricted to the two areas of astronomy and astrology. It also extends to other forms, among which the pictorial and mystical conception of heavens symbolized by the bearers of the divine throne. It was also used to make talismans, just like the ancient Arabic moon zodiac…

Full textIt is through an original edition of exceptional selected texts in Middle English from four manuscripts of Trinity College Library in Cambridge : MSS O.1.13, O.5.26, R.14.32, R.14.51 that Middle English medical recipes, charms, medical and astrological treatises, medical poems and poems on the virtues of plants can now be given a new lease of life. These medical treasures belong to an ancestral traditional culture and science : medicine or natural philosophy, which was inherited fron Egyptian, Greek, Latin and Arabic authors and translators. This intention to bring to light these natural herb remedies and the influence of stars on medieval people's health constitues the heart of this thesis. It is first provided with a general introduction developing the historical context of medieval medicine. A second introduction to the edition firstly presents a complete and detailed codicological description of the four manuscripts, and secondly the editorial principles. The texts edited here in the main and third part, all written in Middle English, have been chosen for their originality, and sometimes, on the contrary, for their conformity with medieval medicine practised by scholars and other skilled praticians. Two volumes contain the texts edited from the four manuscripts of Trinity College Library, gathered according to major themes such as theoretical, astrological, and practical medicine. Seven categories present the different texts : Of the humoral theory, Astrological meddicine, Practical use of medicine and the means for diagnosis, The remedies : blood letting and how to cure by the help of nature, Two panaceas : rosemary and betony, The gathering of plants : auspicious moments, The remedies based on the waters of plants. Each section presenting the texts is introduced by a contextual analysis of the theme, and focuses on its origins and its sources. Each text is also followed by its own glossary. Lastly, the annex, following the conclusion and the bibliography, offers the reader a look behind the scene of the work of the transcriber and editor. It is composed of the analysis and edition of a poem on the vertues of plants edited in this thesis and selected from manuscripts R.14.32 and O.1.13. One is composed of verses, the other is a prose text which badly preserved pages represent the longest version of the famous poem, the Lytil boke on the vertuys of rosemaryn. There is no doubt that such Middle English medical texts present a fundamental interest for the editorial, linguistic and literary fields of research on the Middle Ages. Such sources may also aouse the curiosity of scientists and botanists, as the study of the plants, the stars and their influence on man's health, still under study, has already been proved

Full textWhat conceptual background and knowledge has enabled mankind to understand and organize its temporal experience allowing it to settle into the world, to find its place socially and physically and, from there to act in and on the world? By using what instruments and holding what books on its hands? In what kind of historical relationship to nature? My thesis explores these questions from a historical point of view and from an analytical perspective based on the history of sciences, techniques and knowledge, taking as a basis the study of a wide range of sources (nautical treatises, cosmographies, computistical treatises, maps and instruments), that were produced and in circulation during the 16th century in the Iberian monarchies. I put forward the working hypothesis that conceptions of time were plural and that the development of cosmography which was partly linked to the imperial expansion of the Iberian monarchies provided a privileged base from which to explore the world spatially and temporally. I propose to analyse the historical sources by examining different conceptions of time, rooted in the conceptual backgrounds of arithmetic, astrology and Christian spirituality, that coexist intertwined in what we can call a knot of time. My dissertation is divided into five sections, and explores these questions in two main parts. Whereas the first three sections set the general framework, analysing a large range of sources and spaces, the two last sections are focused on Jeronimo de Chaves (1523-1574), the first person to occupy the chair of cosmography at the House of Trade (Casa de la Contracion), in Seville in 1552

Full textThis dissertation deals with the iconography of the Zodiac between Antiquity and Middle Age, in particular in churches between the XIth and the XIIIth century. The heart of the dissertation is the analysis of a corpus of 260 items. These items concern the figuration of the signs of the Zodiac and the Labors of the months, whether or not combinated, within ecclesial ornamentation between the XIth and the XIIIth century. This period corresponds to the “renaissance” and to the growth of the figuration of the Zodiac in this context. The study is divided into three parts. The first section deals with historiography and with the presentation of the corpus. Then, the origins, re-appropriations and transmissions of the zodiacal tradition between Antiquity and Middle Ages are discussed. The second section considers the distribution of the Zodiac in church. Its role in exterior ornamentation relating to the theme of the Porta coeli and its role in the structuring of intern ornamentation are observed. From the floor to the vault, through capitals, pillars and arches, distribution of the Zodiac in ecclesial space is analyzed in the light of the notions of transitus and iter and in the light of a certain focusing of the ecclesial place. The third section begins with the stakes of the figuration of the zodiacal signs and their dynamic relationship with the Labors of the months. Then, the “re-sémantisation” of each of the zodiacal signs is observed. Finally, the last chapter is an overall view of the connections between heavens and earth which find expression in signs of the Zodiac and the Labors of the months. Their place is considerated according to their iconographical context linked to Christian history and from an eschatological perspective. Signs of the Zodiac are like operators between heavens and earth, both in the ecclesial space tented towards its celestial model and in an iconographical context which connect caro and spiritus, the Human and the Divine
