Episode 264: Copernicus (Part One)

Western Civ - A podcast by Adam Walsh

Today we begin the life of Nicholas Copernicus - the father of modern astronomy. While there is a lot of validity to Copernicus' title, what I cover today are his immediate predecessors: George Peurbach and Regiomontanus. Without these two men, Copernicus might never have written On The Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies. WebsitePatreon SupportWestern Civ 2.0
