Softcover. Condition: vg. First edition. Octavo. LV, [1], 82, [4]pp. Uncut. Original printed wrappers with printer's device on covers and title-page. Germanicus Caesar's translation of Aratus's celebrated astronomical poem, Phaenomena, is crucial for the study of the poetics of Latin translation. Building on the foundation of translation studies, Translating the Heavens investigates how Germanicus rewrote the Phaenomena as an Augustan aetiological poem that subverts the religious and philosophical themes of the original. In Germanicus's version the map of heaven becomes an Ovidian firmament of love and transformation. Text in French and Latin. Wrappers and interior in fine condition. About the author: Germanicus Julius Caesar (24 May 16 B.C. or 15 B.C. 10 October A.D. 19) was a member of the Julio-Claudian dynasty of the early Roman Empire. He was born in Lugdunum, Gaul (modern Lyon). At birth he was named either Nero Claudius Drusus after his father or Tiberius Claudius Nero after his uncle. He received the agnomen Germanicus, by which he is principally known, in 9 BC, when it was posthumously awarded to his father in honour of his victories in Germania. Germanicus was the grandson-in-law and great-nephew of the Emperor Augustus, nephew and adoptive son of the Emperor Tiberius, father of the Emperor Caligula, brother of the Emperor Claudius, and the maternal grandfather of the Emperor Nero.

Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. Cette somme imposante et importante aborde par le biais du vocabulaire tous les problèmes de fonds (problème de définition, de terminologie de sidus, stella etc.). Il n'existe pas, à proprement parler d'astronomie romaine, et le seul astronome connu à Rome (C. Sulpicius Galus, c. 170 a.C.) ne peut prétendre à être un scientifique. Les Romains sont débiteurs de la science grecque tant pour la théorie que dans les inventions pratiques (cadrans, horloges etc.). Il est plus juste de parler d'une astronomie « littéraire » (Hygin, certains passages de Virgile, commentaires des Phénomènes d Aratos par Germanicus) et « philosophique » (Lucrèce, Martianus Capella). L engouement des élites et du peuple romain pour cette discipline ne se démentira pas tout au long de l histoire, car les applications pratiques de l astronomie sont nombreuses: établissement d un calendrier civil, repérage des levers et couchers stellaires pour l agriculture, constructions de cadrans solaires. 2e tirage, 2010.
