This new volume of papers by Julio Samsó deals with the development of astronomy and astrology in al-Andalus and the Maghrib between the 10th and the 19th centuries. Opening with a survey of the social history of the exact sciences in al-Andalus, the book then looks at astronomical tables: the first stages of the introduction of al-Khwarizmi's and al-Battani's tables through the school of Maslama al-Majriti, the development of Ibn al-Zarqalluh/ Azarquiel's theories in Maghribi zijes (Ibn al-Banna' and Ibn Azzuz) and the abandonment of this tradition towards the end of the 14th century. From this period onwards new Eastern zijes (Muhyi al-Din al-Maghribi, Ibn al-Shatir, Ulugh Beg) are introduced in the Maghrib and, towards the beginning of the 17th century, a translation of Abraham Zacut and José Vizinho's Almanach Perpetuum (end of the 15th century) becomes well known in the whole Islamic world, from Morocco to the Yemen. As well as zijes themselves, the author also deals with theoretical astronomy (the use of an elliptical deferent for Mercury in Ibn al-Zarqalluh's equatorium and the criticisms of Ibn al-Haytham and Jabir b. Aflah on Ptolemy's determination of the parameters of the same planet), and with the use of zijes for the calculation of horoscopes, and an experimental astrological method for the correction of mean motion planetary tables (Ibn Azzuz).

Recenzijos

Thanks to Variorum, the work of historians such as Julio Samsó, who study mainly, but not exclusively, the history of Islamic exact sciences in the western part of the Islamic world and who usually publish in diversified journals and collected works scattered all over the world, can now be made more accessible between the covers of one book. This book in particular is an added blessing, for it not only brings together some of the more specialized articles of Professor Samsó but also includes an updated bibliography in the form of additions and corrections, a detailed general index, and most importantly an index of sexagesimal parameters. Journal for the History of Astronomy This interesting collection of articles is the second, and very welcome, volume of Samsó's papers in the Variorum series. Aestimatio 'This collection of papers by an eminent authority on the history of mathematics and astronomy in medieval Andalusia and the Maghreb will be a welcome addition to the library of all scholars with a serious interest in this area. ... Both Professor Samsó and the publisher deserve our thanks for making this work available to scholars of medieval Islamic astronomy.' Journal of Islamic Studies
