Sažetak
In his works, Aristotle speaks of the periodical disappearance and rebirth of civilizations and insists on the eternal recurrence of the same ideas, arts and political institutions. In his Meteorologica, in the context of a cosmos conceived as eternal, a link is established between natural and cultural cycles. Touching on the reception of this text in the Arab world and the Christian Middle Ages, this essay will briefly review some of the discussions on the theme of eternal recurrence in sixteenth-century Italian meteorological literature and address their revival in the Discorsi sopra le Metheore d’Aristotele (1584) by Ragusan philosopher Nicolò Vito di Gozze.
