The Fated Sky: Astrology in History by Benson Bobrick $29.;90 ISBN: 9780743268950 MORE HISTORY TITLES HERE |
In this lively work, historian Bobrick (Wide
as the Waters: The Story of the English Bible and the Revolution It
Inspired) takes the reader on a kaleidoscopic journey through the
history of the reading of the stars. As he shows, from astrology's birth
6,000 years ago in Babylonia to the Reagan White House, the stars have
been studied, interpreted and followed: they drove Christopher Columbus
to America, says Bobrick, and their study led to the sciences of
astronomy and chemistry. While he gives a nod to the eastern mystics who
originated astrology, Bobrick mostly traces the many threads of
astrology as they weave through Western thought. Copernicus, Isaac
Newton and even Martin Luther studied the astrology texts of their day,
using them not only for personal guidance but as a tool in their own
remarkable work. Attacked by establishment churches and debunked and
scoffed at by contemporary science, astrology has stayed with us and
flourishes. Not only are 40 million Americans ravenous consumers of
astrology and dedicated followers of horoscopes, but, Bobrick says,
astrology is reappearing in academe. With great passion and clarity,
Bobrick has written the perfect thinking reader's companion to the daily
horoscope. |
