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 Hubner, Eileen Reeves,
Steven Vanden Broecke, and Graziella Federici Vescovini.
