History of Astronomy
by Feng Shi
About This Novel
Ancient Chinese astronomy is closely related to astrology. Since ancient times, astrologers have always adhered to the creed of "observe astronomy to observe changes in time. When the sky hangs down, you can see good and bad luck." This has given Chinese astronomy a mysterious color from the beginning. Ancient Chinese astronomy is extensive and profound. It not only shows the scientific history of ancient ancestors' observation and timing of phenomena, but also is a useful key to understanding Chinese culture. This book combines philology and archeology to systematically explain the history of ancient Chinese astronomy from a new perspective. It provides original explanations of important issues such as the origin of astronomy, the formation of the Twenty-eight Stars system, the establishment of the Four Symbols system, and the development of star charts.
