This 1893 French work reviews the history of ancient Greek astronomy, considering the work of Pythagoras, Aristotle and the Alexandrian mathematicians. At its core is a detailed analysis of Ptolemy's Almagest, which attempts to trace each of the Greek master's theories back to its origins in Greek mathematical and philosophical thought.
