Description

A Byzance, au XIVeme siecle, certains commencent a prendre conscience de l'avance prise dans le domaine de l'astronomie par les mondes occidental et arabo-persan. L'astrolabe, qui parait avoir disparu du monde byzantin, en est le symbole. Un auteur, Nicephore Gregoras, deja connu pour quelques travaux d'astronomie, entreprend l'ecriture d'un traite de construction d'un tel instrument. En butte semble-t-il a de fortes critiques, l'auteur tentera de repondre par une deuxieme edition, plus complete, mais destinee surtout a demontrer la valeur scientifique de l'instrument. Vingt ans plus tard, un eleve du precedent, Isaac Argyros, reprendra le travail de son maitre, dans un climat manifestement apaise, et ecrira un traite de bien meilleure qualite, mais qui revele neanmoins les limites de la connaissance dans ce domaine a Byzance, au XIVeme siecle. Sensiblement a la meme epoque, vers 1360, un auteur essaiera, avec un certain succes, de retablir une version exploitable du Traite de l'astrolabe de Jean Philopon. Un peu plus tard, Theodore Meliteniote publiera sa Tribible astronomique. Les deux traites que nous editons prennent place dans l'effort fait a Byzance pour combler ce retard.
