This imposing major compendium tackles, through the prism of vocabulary, all of the fundamental problems (definitions, terminology of sidus, stella etc.).There was no Roman work on astronomy per se, and there is no basis in claiming that the only known astronomer in Rome (C. Sulpicius Galus, c. 170 BC) was a scientist. The Romans were indebted to Greek science for both theory and practical inventions (quadrants, clocks, etc.).It is more accurate to speak of a “literary” (Hyginus, certain passages by Virgil, commentaries on Aratus’ Phaenomena by Germanicus Caesar) and “philosophical” (Lucretius, Martianus Capella) astronomy.The enthusiasm of the elites and the Roman people for this discipline never dimmed throughout history, because astronomy has had many practical applications: establishment of a civil calendar, pinpointing of the rising and setting of stars for farming purposes and for building sundials.
