Three-section orbs
#52
Interesting. Has anyone come up with a good reason for the curves/spirals on the VM version?  I’ve wondered if they have something simple like motion behind them, because 4 curved spokes intersect with the earth, and 4 to the heavens. Oresme’s BNF Fr 565 text talks about his unique idea for the time that the earth turns on its axis as opposed to just the heavens turning. Perhaps the VMS author was making a point not just about Aristotlean ideas but putting an Oresmean “spin” on his diagram. Just a guess on my part, but would be interested in this idea and others about this detail.
