I'd like to introduce you to LJS 57, a compendium of Astronomical text in Hebrew, written in Spain around 1391. It's an interesting combination of astronomy and astrology, and illustrates how the division between "science" and "not science" was not nearly so clear in the past as it is today. It has some fantastic illustrations of constellations!

"Cleric, Knight, and Peasant representing the three classes", from Li Livres dou Santé

The tripartite social order of the Middle Ages: the ōrātōrēs (those who pray – clerics), bellātōrēs (those who fight – knights, that is, the nobility), and labōrātōrēs (those who work – peasants and members of the lower middle class).

LJS 64 is a book of diagrams, many with moving parts, designed to accompany the work Theoricae novae planetarum by 15th-century Austrian Georg von Peurbach, who is considered one of the first modern astronomers. He was particularly interested in simplifying the Ptolemic system (which places the Earth in the center of the solar system). The diagrams in the book demonstrate increasingly complex planetary motion.

LJS 64 was recently featured in #CoffeeWithACodex, you can watch the complete 30 minute video here:

Here’s some homework I had for my medieval history class! We had to make a drawing in the style of old illuminated manuscripts, so I made a page for the Dadah Range from volume 1 of Witch Hat Atelier! 💚
