VMs: Micrologus magazine...?

[Nick Pelling <nickpelling@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

Has anyone here seen the 2004 issue of "Micrologus" (an Italian journal) 
with an article on "sons of the zodiac" (or something similar)? According 
to Sergio Toresella (who was told about it recently, and who is trying to 
find a copy ATM)...

        "It says
        that in the middle XVth there was an explosion of interest about 
astrology
        stimulated by  popular prints about the influence of stars and 
zodiacal
        signs and planets on the natural inclinations of men (something 
similar
        to the frescoes of the Basilica of Padova (it is not a church but 
the siege
        of the tribunal) or the frescoes of Palazzo Schifanoia in Ferrara."

This sounds like it could well be relevant...

Oh, but be careful when searching here: there is also an unrelated 
"Micrologus" musical group, which plays (for example) music by "Landini and 
his Contemporaries". :-)

I suspect that this links to the actual journal in question:-
