Discussion 1: Mapping the Universe


Here is a diagram of the Renaissance Universe, in a publication by Johann Maier von Eck (1486-1543).




What does it depict?  In short, what are the various layers of this universe? What is where in this hierarchy?  (Is anything missing that you expected to see based on other depictions we've seen?)

In your answer, describe, and then analyze what it is you have described.  What does it say about God's creation, and about man's position in that creation?

[Need help with any translations of these Latin words?  Ask.]
