6 - The curriculum of astronomical studies in the Statute of 1405.
The oldest Statutes of the that have come down to us date from 1405. They contain a detailed programme for the teaching of Astronomy which reads as follows: "During the first year of the astronomy course the Algorismi de minutis et integris (Algorithms) are read, after which the first book of Euclid’s geometry is read, with the commentary of Campanus. When this latter is read the Tabulae Alphonsinae with the Canons is read. After which the Theorica Planetarum (Planetary Theory) is read. During the second year the Tractatus de Sphera is read for first, after which the Canons for the use of the geometric tables are read. Once these are read the treatise on the astrolabe of Messehallah is read. During the third year Alcabitius is read for first, after which the Centiloquium of Ptolemy with the commentary by Haly is read. After which the third book of Geometry is read, after which the Tractatus Quadrantis (Treatise on the Quadrant) is read. During the fourth year all the Quadripartitus is read for first, after which the book De urina non visa (On urines unseen) is read. After which the third edition of the Almagest is read." The first thing to note about this programme, clearly addressed to the students of Medicine, is the coordination between the mathematics, astronomy-mathematics and astrology parts.

4 - The origins of the teaching of Astronomy.
We do not know when exactly Astronomy was first taught at the University of Bologna but, at about the same time as teacher Moneta was making his comments on Aristotle, we find in Bologna the person who would become the most famous astrologer of his time: Guido Bonatti (beginning XIII cen.- c.1296). We do in fact know that in 1233 he was engaged in a public debate in Bologna with friar Giovanni Schio da Vicenza (?-1260), a vigorous opponent of astrology Guido Bonatti left us an astrological compilation, entitled Decem continens tractatus astronomiae , which survives in a large number of codices and which was printed three times: in 1491, in 1506 and in 1550. The book was written shortly after 1277 when the author, who died in 1296 or 1297, was already advanced in age; one may assume therefore that it reflected more the knowledge of astronomy in Italy in the first half of the XIIIth century than in the times when the old author drafted the text that has come down to us. In Bonatti’s treatise the section devoted to mathematical astronomy is rather short. He lays out basic ideas regarding the equator, the ecliptic, the altazimuth coordinates, Ptolemy’s system of deferents and epicycles and illustrates how these can explain the phenomena of station and retrogradation of the planets. Bonatti ends the section: "

TITLE:
Tractatus de Sphaera Mundi
DATE:
AUTHOR:
Johannes de Sacrobosco [John Halifax of Holywood]
DESCRIPTION: A fitting end to this volume, this map is from a treatise that is often cited as atypical of the medieval period because it is derived entirely from the writings of earlier scholars, leaning especially on Ptolemy's astronomical work the Almagest. However, even without the addition of the new discoveries, it achieved a great popularity that lasted well through the Renaissance, for after the invention of printing no fewer than 65 editions succeeded each other in rapid order and occupied the attentions of the foremost scientific printers of the time. Its popularity may be explained not only by its dependence on established authority, but on its slight bulk and the simplicity to which elaborate theories were reduced. Its four chapters deal with the terrestrial globe, circles, the movements of the stars and with the planets. It was doubtless this brevity which recommended it to seafaring folk, for it was known to have been one of the standard text books of the Portuguese seamen during their great age of exploration.
Johannes de Sacrobosco, latinized for John Halifax of Holywood, a teacher of mathematics and astronomy at the University of Paris during the 13th century. He was probably from Yorkshire, England, educated at Oxford, and migrated to Paris in 1221, where he compiled his

with Sacro Bosco's Sphaera mundi , Alchabitius' Libellus isagogus and Ibn Ezra's De luminaribus et diebus creticis bound in The solar eclipse of August 11, the recent anniversary of thirty years since the first man stepped on the moon, plus our increasing calendrical obsession as the new millennium approaches, makes our first book of the month a volume of four astronomical works bound together a particularly apt choice. Instrument with two moveable volvelles to show the motion of the moon Printed calendars and almanacs became extremely popular in the fifteenth century and provided ordinary people with the basic knowledge required to plan their daily routines. The market for calendars was first tapped by Gutenburg, who published a calendar which calculated the times of new and full moons and planetary positions, with readings every two to three days. All earlier calendars, however, were superseded by those of Regiomontanus (1436-1476) whose calculations were far more accurate; he recorded several eclipses of the moon and his interest led him to make the important observation that longitude at sea could be determined by calculating lunar distances. Outstanding also is his observation of a comet in 1472, 210 years before it was "first" seen by Halley.

    Mathematician and astronomer born in Rastrick. He was also known as Johannes de Sacrobosco John of the Holy Wood John Holywood John of Halifax , or John Halifax He became a canon of the Order of St Augustine at the monastery of Holywood in Nithsdale. He promoted Arabic methods of arithmetic and algebra in his teachings, and in his De Algorismo , he discusses calculation with positive integers, with each of the 11 chapters dealing with topics such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square roots and cube roots. He abridged The Almagest of Ptolemy In 1220, he wrote a book on astronomy entitled Tractatus de Sphaeri Mundi which deals with the shape and place of the Earth within a spherical universe, the various circles on the sky, the rising and setting of heavenly bodies from different geographical locations, and Ptolemy's theory of the planets and of eclipses. The book was used throughout Europe from the middle of the 13th century, and it was still the basic astronomy text until the 17th Century. In 1232, he wrote
