Warning : Most of the referenced works are in Latin or German. British and French libraries are not providing sufficient and representative free astrological materials: they have been confiscated and are barely accessible. There is an "alliance" between British mercantilism (which insists that everything must be paid for : see for example the Eebo unavailable corpus that even most of University libraries can not afford) and French obscurantism (which provides only anti-astrological secondary works). This alliance is hostile to the knowledge of astrology, and promotes negation of the importance of astrology in European cultural history, and possibly the falsification and rewriting of its history in favour of ideological dominant imperatives. These imperatives are first Christian, followed by the scientistic, and are prevailing for centuries (see my Manifesto).

1930A colossal work : the first modern complete essay on history of Chinese astronomy and astrology, initially published in the journal T'oung pao (series 2, vols 8-10-11-12-14-15-20-21) between 1907 and 1922 (parts A to G1 and G2 to I). Incomplete series on Gallica and on Internet Archive : the missing chapter, Le cycle de Jupiter (I. La planète annuaire, ...), can be downloaded on CURA. Saussure shows that the ancient cosmogonical system of China was a metaphysical construction instigated by astrologers, "la plus ancienne conception unitaire, synthétique et déterministe du monde". ![]()
