Cambridge University Press Adelard of Bath Conversatns Nephew On the Same and the Different Questions on Natural Science and On Birds 9 Cambridge Medieval Classics Series Number 9
Book SynopsisAdelard of Bath was one of the most colourful personalities of the Middle Ages. He travelled to the Crusader kingdoms, to Sicily and south Italy, and translated texts on astronomy, astrology and magic from Arabic into Latin. He acquired a lasting reputation as a pioneering mathematician, and he was a gifted teacher. He addressed one of these works, on cosmology and the astrolabe, to the future King Henry II, and it is in the context of the education of the nobility that the three works edited in this book are to be viewed. Adelard meant them to be both entertaining and instructive. They deal with all kinds of topics, from the nature of the soul to the cause of earthquakes, from the effects of music to how to train a hawk. A preface provides the results of research on Adelard's life and work.Table of ContentsList of illustrations; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1. De eodem et diverso (On the Same and the Different); Notes; 2. Questiones naturales (Questions on Natural Science); Notes; 3.

There are also essays on Bacon's theory of rhetoric and history as well as on his moral and political philosophy and on his legacy. Throughout, the contributors aim to place Bacon in his historical context.Trade Review"...Cambridge Companions have established themselves as the best of their kind, sound and basic, but often breaking new ground so that established scholars cannot ignore them.
