Synopsis Inside the Stargazer's Palace by : Violet Moller
Enter the mysterious world of sixteenth-century science, where astronomers and alchemists shared laboratories 'A scintillating journey into a world where discoveries rip through doctrine like meteors. There is magic in these pages.' Daisy Dunn, author of The Missing Thread In 1543, Nicolaus Copernicus declared the earth revolved around the Sun, overturning centuries of scholastic presumption. A new age was coming into view – one guided by observation, technology and logic. But omens and elixirs did not disappear from the sixteenth-century laboratory. Charms and potions could still be found nestled between glistening brass instruments and leather-bound tomes. The line between the natural and supernatural remained porous, yet to be defined. From the icy Danish observatory of Tycho Brahe, to the smoky, sulphur-stained workshop of John Dee, Violet Moller tours the intellectual heart of early European science. Exploring its rich, multidisciplinary culture, Inside the Stargazer’s Palace reveals a dazzling forgotten world, where all knowledge, no matter how arcane, could be pursued in good faith.

Synopsis The stargazer’s servant by : Максим Удовиченко
More than a thousand years ago, in what is now the territory of modern Mauritania and partly of its neighboring States, was located a rather powerful and militant Caliphate.The ruler of this Caliphate had at his court a personal magician, astrologer and soothsayer.The astrologer was an expert in different areas of secret knowledge, and he was highly esteemed by the ruler.In his «Book of Knowledge», he wrote down all that was of magical practices and of nature observation in detail, which came to him by inheritance from other great magicians.The Caliph's astrologer had a very inquisitive and dexterous servant, who also led his book and was going to give it to his worthy successor. Of course, the book of the servant was nothing like the great astrologer's «Book of Knowledge», but nevertheless...In our days, by a strange coincidence, both books fell into the hands of completely different people...

Synopsis The Wise Men and the Star by : Dean G. Miller
The story of the Wise Men in Matthew’s Gospel has always been an enigma. The only three important terms in that tale—“wise men,” “star,” and “east”—are all lost in obscurity, rendering it useless as a record. For this reason, many scholars consider it just another miracle story of the kind that surrounded other ancient heroes. But what if a piece of information was missing whose recovery would make it as clear today as it was to the original readers? In The Wise Men and the Star, Dr. Miller explains how he uncovered that missing piece, which then revealed who the Wise Men were, the location of the East when they arrived in Bethlehem, and what was the star they saw.
