| Sumario: | This text by (Ps.)Eratosthenes translated in this publication portrays a group of episodes not limited to 12 constellations. Nor does it discuss deterministic influences / constraints on daily, monthly, or annual contingencies and behaviours of the earthly creatures of the Alexandrian Era. Although it is not an astronomical treatise and the style has a simple and succinct character, much remains to be decoded in just over forty episodes. Of astronomical connotations, it presents itself as an approximation exercise, providing the receiver with explanations of something visible but not attainable - the constellations, through images of common knowledge, rooted in scenes and mythological aspects. In addition, the topoi are vast, such as philia, betrayal, anger, justice, crime and punishment, reverence, eponymia, etiology, metamorphosis, mythology. |
