By Francisco Fernandez Raxo

Book Overview

De Cometis, Et Prodigiosis Eorum Portentis, Libri Quatuor est opus Francisci Fernandez Raxo, quod anno MDLXXVIII editum est. In hoc libro, Raxo tractat de cometis et prodigiis, quae eorum apparitione observantur. Quatuor libri sunt, quorum primus de natura cometarum agit, secundus de eorum effectibus, tertius de portentis, quae eorum apparitione eveniunt, et quartus de astrologia et cometarum praedictione. Raxo multa ex antiquis scriptoribus et philosophis, ut Aristotele, Plinio, et Seneca, citat, et multas historias exponit, quae prodigiis et cometis spectant. Hoc opus est valde utile ad intellegendum astronomiam et astrologiam, et ad cognoscendum quomodo homines in antiquitate cometas et prodigia interpretabantur.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
