In "Our Native Language" and other Paratextual Material

Astrology - early works to 1800.

The book itself does not only contain the work of the introduction to said “Astrological Judgement.” It also includes another work of the Mathematics behind said astrology. This Mathematics section is presented as written by G.C., gent., who wrote an introductory letter to the reader in Claude Dariot’s translated work. It appears as though G.C. felt it necessary to add on to Dariot’s original work with his own findings, which presents interesting paratextual material, as well as an interesting argument on the authorship of this book.

G.C., gent.
