- Resum
- Geomancy had a prominent position among the medieval arts of divination. Outstanding thinkers such as Thomas Aquinas, Albert the Great and Bonaventure dealt with it. Writers and poets quoted geomantic concepts and texts. This volume addresses crucial issues concerning this particular form of prognostication as well as the ecclesiastical reactions and condemnations. Chief texts of Latin medieval geomancy – Hugh of Santalla's Ars geomantiae, Estimaverunt Indi and the Geomantia ascribed to William of Moerbeke – as well as texts from the Arabic and Hebrew geomantic tradition are carefully investigated here. Attention is also paid to lesserknown forms of divination – onomancy, chiromancy, spatulomancy and astral medicine – and to magic.
