It is well-known and famous for containing the Third Law of Planetary Motion, but book IV deals with his attempt to reform astrology within a Pythagorean-Platonic framework, and here he presented a new understanding of the mechanism of the aspects. Kepler’s “astrology of resonance” had repercussions among contemporary astrologers in the 17th century, such as Christopher Heydon, Abdias Trew and Peter Crüger. His ideas of a physical basis for celestial motions and were viewed critically however, and in the perspective of the Age of Enlightenment Kepler’s speculative approaches, as well as his metaphysical and religious arguments met with skepticism and disapproval. The tide turned in the Romantic Era, when just these aspects came to the fore and paved the way to an edition of Kepler’s works. The German philosophers F. W. J. Schelling (1775–1854), E. F. Apelt (1812–1859) and the astronomer J. W. A. Pfaff (1774–1835) played a crucial role in the rediscovery and reappraisal of Kepler. Pfaff worked on a German translation of the Harmonices mundi, and the teacher of mathematics Christian Frisch (1807–1881), who had studied under Pfaff in Erlangen, published the first critical edition of Kepler’s works from 1858 to 1871.","PeriodicalId":152044,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Cosmos","volume":"13 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116785803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Harmony, Politics and Utopia in the Cosmology of Jean Bodin and Johannes Kepler

Both Bodin and Kepler subscribed to the political cosmology inherited from Plato, Aristotle and the Stoics, and elaborated in detail by Claudius Ptolemy, in which the terrestrial state was part of a wider entity including the celestial spheres and the use of the planets to identify changes in the quality of time and fluctuations in natural influences. Both sought to remedy failures in contemporary astrology and create a new and empirical discipline which could avert future crises by predicting them. The paper examines Bodin’s theories and then locates the work of both him and Kepler as attempts to establish ways to create stability in the unstable politics of the post-Reformation era, and contextualises Kepler’s attempts to delineate the perfect state as utopian.","PeriodicalId":152044,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Cosmos","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124411571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

G. Ballard each use\u0000 internalised images of the Sun to construct and narrate their modern mythical\u0000 landscapes. In Harris’s Palace of the Peacock (1960), the Sun fills the pages with a\u0000 nebulous and ineffable blinding power. In Ballard’s The Drowned World (1962), the dual\u0000 image of the physical and the psychological Sun inspires an atavistic pilgrimage. This\u0000 chapter studies the role of the Sun in each novel, where it serves to inspire a quest\u0000 for a form of individuation. I argue that Ballard’s Sun is a transcendental engine that\u0000 drives individual psychic integration, while Harris’s is a gateway into a metaphysical\u0000 realm of spiritual unity. In each case, the Sun is the focus of a modern mythological\u0000 method.","PeriodicalId":152044,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Cosmos","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125003309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In all four cycles of Irish mythology, from the Tuatha De Danaan of the Mythological Cycle to the kings of Tara in the Historical Cycle, repeated mention is made of Brú na Bóinne, the home of the Sun gods, Dagda and Lugh, and the place of the conception and birth of the warrior hero, Cú Chulainn.

What Do the Gods Call the Sky? Naming the Celestial in Old Norse 诸神如何称呼天空?用古斯堪的纳维亚语命名天体

The 12th century Old Norse poem Alvíssmál lists different names for the sky, moon, and sun used among humans, gods, giants, elves, and dwarves. Although similar lists of words used among different supernatural beings exist elsewhere, the Norse list is unique in that it focuses on a vocabulary associated with the celestial. The Alvíssmál suggests that while the gods may see the sky as an unwavering vault, this same sky may be a ‘tall house’ to the prosaic and earthbound giants, and a ‘dripping hall’ to the dwarves who prefer to dwell underground. This paper argues that the various sets of non-human words for celestial features in Alvíssmál hint at an underlying awareness that the celestial world does not necessarily carry a fixed meaning, but can be imbued with a range of different interpretations based on the observer’s culture and environment.","PeriodicalId":152044,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Cosmos","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115244184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among his wide ranging obsessions was the\u0000 history of astronomy, especially myths of the constellations. Throughout his career,\u0000 these stories provided the foundation for works that allude to modern advances in\u0000 science, his own personal traumas, and popular culture. For instance, he employed the\u0000 story of Andromeda to explore to new theories about the size and age of the universe; he\u0000 labored for two decades on a Duchampian boite en valise devoted to his desire for an\u0000 imaginary little girl astronomer named Berenice, embodied in the constellation Coma\u0000 Berenices; upon the death of Marilyn Monroe he produced a commemorative assemblage with\u0000 Custos Messium playing the part of a custodian to guard the deceased actress.
