Wretched Subjects
Wretched Subjects republishes Otto Neugebauer’s 1951 essay, “On the Study of Wretched Subjects” with new backmatter commentary by Lauria Joan.
In vol. 41 of the Isis History of Science journal, the journal’s editor George Sarton wrote a blithe, curt review of E.S.Drower’s new translation of Madean astrology. Neugebauer’s response is a dry, witty defense of so-called Wretched Subjects – subjects which represent knowledge of little historic value to our science-obsession age.
A classic apologia for those of us obsessed with the ancient, the forgotten, the wretched magiks & omens of history.
