Leçons de cosmographie by A. Guilmin
"Leçons de cosmographie" by A. Guilmin is a scientific publication written in the mid-19th century. The work aims to educate about cosmography, covering celestial bodies and their movements, and serves as a textbook for lycées, colleges, and public education systems. With a structured approach, it delves into the stars, planets, the sun, moon, and other astronomical phenomena. The opening of the book introduces the concept of cosmography, defining it as the description
and study of celestial bodies and their positions in the infinite space. It presents an overview of the course content that will follow, which includes detailed discussions on stars, the Earth, the sun, and the movement of celestial bodies. The author begins by elaborating on the nature of stars, explaining their appearances in the night sky, and setting the groundwork for more complex astronomical concepts such as distances and movements that will be explored in subsequent chapters.
