Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Geoffrey Chaucer's treatise serves as a comprehensive guide to the astrolabe, an essential medieval astronomical instrument. Written for his son, the text details the astrolabe's components and its practical applications for measuring celestial positions and telling time. Presented in Middle English, the book may challenge contemporary readers, but it includes editor Walter William Skeat's notes for clarity. This work not only sheds light on medieval astronomy but also reflects Chaucer's educational values and poetic intellect, making it a significant historical document.
