Dr Philipp Nothaft

Most of my research revolves around discourses of time, astronomy/astrology, and calendars in medieval and early modern Europe, with a heavy focus on unpublished sources in medieval Latin manuscripts. Apart from a series of critical editions of texts dating from the twelfth to the fifteenth century, my current main project consists in a large-scale history of calendar improvement and lunisolar astronomy in the Latin Middle Ages. I also hope to expand this research into producing follow-up monographs on medieval observational astronomy and the history of historical chronology.
