Harmony and Symmetry. Celestial regularities shaping human culture.

Exploring the deep-rooted connection between astronomy and human culture, this collection highlights the significant contributions of Johannes Kepler, particularly his search for harmony in celestial movements. The proceedings from the 2018 SEAC conference in Graz emphasize Kepler's early work, including his first book, Mysterium cosmographicum, which proposed a twelve-fold division of the zodiac. The collection features five contributions that delve into Kepler's theories, including the intersection of harmony in musical theory, showcasing the enduring influence of celestial regularities on human thought.
