Astrology and numerology in medieval and early modern Catalonia : the Tractat de prenostication de la vida natural dels hòmens /
From a late 15th-century Catalan incunable and drawing on a rich tradition of astrological magic, geomancy, Pythagorean numerology and Hebrew gematria, this practical manual reveals a unique expression of medieval syncretism, the mingling of traditions and the development of new ideas.
