GIROLAMO CARDANO was an Italian doctor, natural philosopher, and
mathematician who became a best-selling author in Renaissance
Europe. He was also a leading astrologer of his day, whose
predictions won him access to some of the most powerful people in
sixteenth-century Europe. In Cardano's Cosmos, Anthony Grafton
invites readers to follow this astrologer's extraordinary career
and explore the art and discipline of astrology in the hands of a
brilliant practitioner.
Renaissance astrologers predicted everything from the course of
the future of humankind to the risks of a single investment, or
even the weather. They analyzed the bodies and characters of
countless clients, from rulers to criminals, and enjoyed widespread
respect and patronage. This book traces Cardano's contentious
career from his first astrological pamphlet through his rise to
high-level consulting and his remarkable autobiographical works.
Delving into astrological principles and practices, Grafton shows
how Cardano and his contemporaries adapted the ancient art for
publication and marketing in a new era of print media and changing
science. He maps the context of market and human forces that shaped
Cardano's practices -- and the maneuvering that kept him at the top
of a world rife with patronage, politics, and vengeful rivals.
Cardano's astrology, argues Grafton, was a profoundly empirical
and highly influential art, one that was integral to the attempts
of sixteenth-century scholars to understand their universe and
themselves.

This book is an English translation of Book 21 of the Astrologia
Gallica, in which Morin sets forth his method of horoscope
interpretation. In the first section of the book he reviews the
methods of other astrologers and explains why they are
insufficient. In the second section he explains his own method,
which is both different from and superior to the traditional
methods. Morin was a physician who became the most renowned of all
French astrologers. He was appointed Royal Mathematician to King
Louis XIII and was summoned to be present at the birth of the royal
heir, the future King Louis XIV. His master work, the Astrologia
Gallica, was published in Paris in 1661. It consists of a Preface
and 26 individual books in the scholarly Latin of the 17th century.
Many of these Books are now available in English translation, but
Book 21 should be read first as it contains the fundamental
explanation of the Morin method. Richard S. Baldwin made this
English translation directly from the Latin text.
