  • Funding of the Papal Army's Campaign to Germany During The
    9 Petr VOREL Funding of the Papal Army’s Campaign to Germany during the Schmalkaldic War (Edition of the original accounting documentation “Conto de la Guerra de Allemagna” kept by the Pope’s accountant Pietro Giovanni Aleotti from 22 June 1546 to 2 September 1547) Abstract: This article is based on the recently discovered text of accounting documentation led by the Papal secret accountant Pietro Giovanni Aleotti. He kept records of income and expenses of Papal chamber connected with the campaign of Papal army that was sent from Italy to Germany by Pope Paul III (Alessandro Farnese) in the frame of the first period of so called Smalkaldic War (1546–1547). The author publishes this unique source in extenso and completes the edition by the detailed analysis of the incomes and expenses of this documentation. The analysis is extended by three partial texts dealing with 1) so called Jewish tax that was announced by Paul III in the financial support of military campaign, 2) credit granting of this campaign by the bank house of Benvenuto Olivieri in connection with the collection of Papal tithe in the Romagna region and 3) staffing of the commanding officers of Papal army during this campaign (in the attachment one can find a reconstruction of the officers’ staff with identification of the most important commanders). In the conclusion the author tries to determine the real motives why Paul III decided to take part in this campaign. In comparison to the previous works the author accents mainly the efforts of the Farnese family to raise their prestige at the end of the pontificate of Paul III and their immediate financial interests that are reflected in the account documentation.

  • The Reception of the Copernican Revolution Among Provençal Humanists of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries*
    The Reception of the Copernican Revolution Among Provençal Humanists of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries* Jean-Pierre Luminet Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille (LAM) CNRS-UMR 7326 & Centre de Physique Théorique de Marseille (CPT) CNRS-UMR 7332 & Observatoire de Paris (LUTH) CNRS-UMR 8102 France E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We discuss the reception of Copernican astronomy by the Provençal humanists of the XVIth- XVIIth centuries, beginning with Michel de Montaigne who was the first to recognize the potential scientific and philosophical revolution represented by heliocentrism. Then we describe how, after Kepler’s Astronomia Nova of 1609 and the first telescopic observations by Galileo, it was in the south of France that the New Astronomy found its main promotors with humanists and « amateurs écairés », Nicolas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc and Pierre Gassendi. The professional astronomer Jean-Dominique Cassini, also from Provence, would later elevate the field to new heights in Paris. Introduction In the first book I set forth the entire distribution of the spheres together with the motions which I attribute to the earth, so that this book contains, as it were, the general structure of the universe. —Nicolaus Copernicus, Preface to Pope Paul III, On the Revolution of the Heavenly Spheres, 1543.1 Written over the course of many years by the Polish Catholic canon Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543) and published following his death, De revolutionibus orbium cœlestium (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres) is regarded by historians as the origin of the modern vision of the universe.2 The radical new ideas presented by Copernicus in De revolutionibus * Extended version of the article "The Provençal Humanists and Copernicus" published in Inference, vol.2 issue 4 (2017), on line at http://inference-review.com/.

They show a wide variety of designs, each pointing out the particularity of the title and what makes Taking possession of astronomy it noteworthy. The thesis is a survey of 291 frontispieces and illustrated title pages in European books on astronomy from the 17th century. It is a quantitative and qualitative survey of how motifs are related to consumption, identification and display. Elements in the motifs related to factual content as opposed to those aimed to raise the perceived value of astronomy are distinguished.

    Introduction A new disciplinary awareness in astronomy arose in the late sixteenth century. In the centuries before the publication of Nicolaus Copernicus’ (1473-1543) De revolutionibus orbium coelestium in 1543, natural philosophy and mathematics were considered separate university subjects with relatively no overlap. Natural philosophy was the search for either physical or natural causes, whereas mathematics “sought demonstrations based only on the formal properties of magnitudes. The two domains related to radically different kinds of questions about the world.”1 The disciplinary boundaries that existed between the two were so entrenched among scholars that challenges to these boundaries persisted well into the seventeenth century. Moreover, natural philosophy was clearly more prominent and important than mathematics, as the latter was rarely emphasized in the universities. The publication of Copernicus’ De revolutionibus helped create a disciplinary awareness in astronomy.
