Hipparchus’ Star Catalogues
摘要
This article analyzes the fragments connected with Hipparchus' Star Catalogue (i.e., the fragment in the Codex Climaci Rescriptus, those in the so-called Aratus Latinus, and P.Aberd. 12) and compares them to the evidence provided by the Exegesis to the Phaenomena of Aratus and Eudoxus, the only work by Hipparchus that has reached us by direct tradition, to assess their value and what they can tell us about Hipparchus’ engagement with stars and star catalogues.
