Copernicus, Brahe, and Kepler. But as the work proceeded, it became evident that this plan was much too ambitious, and so I decided to terminate my History with late antiquity, well before Islam. Nevertheless, I did not discard the running commentary that I had prepared when studying De revolutionibus in its relation to the methodology of the Almagest. Only recently, E. S. Kennedy and his collaborators had opened access to the" Maragha School" (mainly Ibn ash-Shalir), revealing close parallels to Copernicus‘s procedures. Accordingly, it seemed useful to make available a modern analysis of De revolutionibus, and thus in 1975 I prepared for publication "Notes on Copernicus. " In the meantime, however, Noel Swerdlow, also starting from Greek astronomy, not only extended his work into a deep analysis of De revolu tionibus, but also systematically investigated its sources and predecessors (Peurbach, Regiomontanus, etc. ). I was aware of these studies through his publications as well as from numer | 出版日期 | Book 1984 | 关键词 | Astronomy; Calculation; Copernicus; Derivation; equation; theorem | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4613-8262-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-8264-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4613-8262-1Series ISSN 0172-570X | issn_series | 0172-570X | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York Inc. 1984 |
