The Astrology of Nativities in Richard de Fournival’s Nativitas and in the Speculum Astronomiae
L'astrologie des nativités dans la Nativitas de Richard de Fournival et le Speculum astronomiae
Résumé
Following on from the studies by Bruno Roy and Charles Burnett, this study revisits the possible attribution of the Speculum astronomiae to Richard de Fournival. In addition to the comparisons already noted between this treatise and Richard’s Biblionomia, it highlights a number of elements in common with its Nativitas, concerning in particular the technical vocabulary of birth horoscope astrology. They tend to strengthen the hypothesis of its authorship
