Giordano Bruno and the heresy of many worlds

Alberto A. Martinez, ‘Giordano Bruno and the Heresy of Many Worlds,’ Annals of Science (2016). http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00033790.2016.1193627

When the above article was first published online, some text accidentally replaced a symbol in one of the quotes given on p. 21. This has now been corrected in both the print and online versions, to the version given below:

In 2010, a remarkable document was discovered in the Archivio Storico Capitolino, which shows the importance of the heresy of many worlds. It is from February 12, 1600, just five days before Bruno’s execution. It says:

The Proceedings were burned, those in which the curate [parish priest] already noted had specified so many ⊙ [suns] and for which he was burned, and soon will be burned an obstinate relasso [someone who relapsed into heresy] called Tadeo [sic] Bruno of Nola, a famous writer … 125

So, apparently, someone else, as well as Bruno, died for believing in many suns.

Taylor & Francis apologises for this error.
