520    Explore the evolution of astronomy from Dante to Einstein,
       as seen through the eyes of trailblazing Victorian 
       astronomer Mary Acworth Evershed. In 1910, Mary Acworth 
       Evershed (1867-1949) sat on a hill in southern India 
       staring at the moon as she grappled with apparent mistakes
       in Dante's Divine Comedy. Was Dante's astronomy 
       unintelligible? Or was he, for a man of his time and place,
       as insightful as one could be about the sky? As the 
       twentieth century began, women who wished to become 
       professional astronomers faced difficult cultural barriers,
       but Evershed joined the British Astronomical Association 
       and, from an Indian observatory, became an experienced 
       observer of sunspots, solar eclipses, and variable stars. 
       From the perspective of one remarkable amateur astronomer,
       listeners will see how ideas developed during Galileo's 
       time evolved or were discarded in Newtonian conceptions of
       the cosmos and recast in Einstein's theories. The result 
       is a book about the history of science but also a poetic 
       meditation on literature, science, and the evolution of 
       ideas.
