Recommendatio astronomiae: un anonimo trattato del secolo XV in difesa dell’astrologia e della magia

The aim of my work is to recall the attention on an anonimous astrological text Recommendatio astronomiae, here first edited by Paolo Lucentini. Recommendatio is a very important witness of knowledge od some magical text attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, such as the Liber runarum, Liber planetarum, Centiloquium. The most relevant point is the defence of astronomical images present in the Hermetic texts proposed by Recommendatio, after the condemnation of Speculum astronomiae.
