1 SPHERE (UMR_7219) - Sciences, Philosophie, Histoire

A two-day crash-course reading group in li 曆 mathematical astronomy for those at the MPIWG who are already trained in classical Chinese and are interested in learning to read classical Chinese mathematics. The goal is to supplement current scholars’ training in other facets of the Chinese astral sciences and to lay a foundation for future collaboration. Roughly 200 pages of background reading will be assigned in advance. The event will be open to roughly 5 (but no more than 10) MPIWG scholars.

Mots clés: History of astronomy; Early imperial China; History of mathematics

Domaines: Histoire, Philosophie et Sociologie des sciences
