Copernicus Banned. The Entangled Matter of the Anti-Copernican Decree of 1616
by Natacha Fabbri and Federica Favino
This book, consisting of nine essays on the causes, the protagonists and the consequences of the decree, sheds light on various philosophical, theological, political and cultural aspects of the discussions that arose around the ‘temerity’ of Copernicanism and that eventually led to its prohibition by the Church. These chapters form a mosaic whose pieces contribute to completing the picture outlined by other studies, while also adding new meaning to the overall scenario.
