James M. Lattis
Clavius was influential throughout Europe in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This book uses his own publications, as well as archival materials, to trace the central role he played in integrating traditional Ptolemaic astronomy and Aristotelian natural philosophy into an orthodox cosmology.
