Abstract

The author presents the gnomonic concepts of the Jesuiti Athanasius Kircher through the study of four sciatteric tables found by dr. Giuseppe Monaco now in the Astronomical and Copernican Museum of the Monte Porzio Catone Astronomical Observatory (Rome). With his work Kircher operated a cultural synthesis between gnomonic, geometry, astronomy and astrology.
