EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ms 2200 f. 115v. The World, according to Aristotle" takes us back in time to the 13th century and offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of medieval cosmology. Created by the French School during this era, it is a miniature from Guillaume de Conches' renowned work "De Philosophia Mundi". The image showcases Aristotle's conceptualization of the universe, beautifully depicted on vellum within this manuscript held at Bibliotheque Sainte-Genevieve in Paris, France. At its center lies Earth and mankind themselves, surrounded by the celestial Empyrean – God's abode – along with the Virgin Mary and angels. As we delve deeper into this artwork's intricate details, we witness William of Conches' profound influence as a scholastic philosopher during his time. This treatise explores various concepts such as women and men's roles within society while delving into theories of cosmology. The artist skillfully illustrates different spheres representing planets like Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Mars, and Venus encircling Earth—a mesmerizing model of the universe based on Aristotelian philosophy intertwined with astronomical observations. This extraordinary piece not only serves as an invaluable historical artifact but also invites contemplation about humanity's place in the cosmos throughout centuries past. It sparks curiosity about how our understanding has evolved since then while reminding us of our eternal quest for knowledge and meaning in an ever-expanding universe.
