This is the second part of our conversation with historian Stephan Heilen. In this episode we address his latest research and publication: Konjunktionsprognostik in der Frühen Neuzeit. 1. Band: Die Antichrist-Prognose des Johannes von Lübeck (1474) zur Saturn-Jupiter-Konjunktion von 1504 und ihre frühneuzeitliche Rezeption (Valentin Koerner, 2020). This book addresses the use of the Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions in prognostication and offers a critical edition with German translation of John of Lübeck’s 1474 prediction of the advent of the Antichrist.
