Origin: Written in Italy (Ferrara), in 1461 by Pellegrino Agli of Ferrara (see f. 110v).
Provenance 1: A contemporary hand has written on the verso of the front flyleaf, 'Versus quos Ci[cer]o allegat in libro de fato [Verses that Cicero appends to the book De Fato]./ Sunt qui in fortunae iam casibus omnia ponant/ Et mundum credant nullo rectore moveri/ Natura volvente vices et mensis et anni.' A slightly later hand has added the attribution of the verses to Juvenal (Satura XIII, ll. 86-88). According to the Davies edition of De Fato, these verses are found in Oxford, Balliol College 248d (Italy, ca. 1445, fol. 248v-256) and in London, British Library, Harley 2511 (Italy (Padua), 1464), filling a lacuna in chapter 2 of Cicero's text (C. Davies, M. Tulli Ciceronis De divinatione et De fato (Frankfurt, 1828), p. 570, note). It is worth noting that Pierre Pithou, an early owner of the present manuscript, also owned an important copy of Juvenal and edited that author, so the attribution may be his. Greek annotations in an early hand, possibly the same as the Cicero inscription, including the title 'Astronomicon' on fol. 1.Signature of Cardinal Domenico Grimani (1460-1523), Cardinal of St. Mark and Patriarch of Aquileia (owner of a major manuscript collection), verso of front flyleaf: 'Liber D. Grimani Cardinalis S. Marci.'; the manuscript was bequeathed by him to his nephew and successor, Marinus, his signature and shelfmark below: 'xiiii/ M. Patriarchae Aquileien[sis]'; later belonged to Pierre Pithou (1539-1596), in whose family it remained until the mid-nineteenth century; nineteenth-century de Rosny bookplate, descended from Pithou; sold in the Duchesse de Berry sale (Paris, 1837, n. 2426; Schoenberg Database of Manuscripts 42801) to Bossange; owned by one Count H. de Silva of Milan, sold by Potier, 15 February 1869, nr. 246 (Schoenberg Database of Manuscripts 75673); later owned by Bertram, the Fourth Earl of Ashburnham (1797-1878); his green label '343' on spine.
Provenance 2: This manuscript has surfaced several times over the centuries in the work of editors of Manilius. Joseph Scaliger wrote to Pithou about this manuscript in 1573, asking to study it for his forthcoming edition and claiming that he had heard about it from Pithou's brother François (Lettres françaises inédites, pp. 21 and 26). While it is unknown if Pithou did in fact loan the manuscript to Scaliger, the variant readings in the present manuscript are noted by hand in the margins of Pithou's copy of the Scaliger edition of 1600 that is now Oxford, Bodleian Library D 5.13 Linc. (see Garrod, p. xliv), noted by Bentley in the preface to his 1739 edition (p. xiv). By the time Garrod published his edition in 1911, the manuscript was considered lost (p. xliii), even though it was at the Boston Public Library by that time; Housman, in his edition of 1930, tentatively identified the Codex Pithoeanus as belonging to the Boston Public Library (p. xvii).

Even his name is uncertain, the 'Marcus' is partly conjectural. All that we know of this man comes from his sole, known work, his didactic monograph, the 'Astronomica', a five book Latin poem that discusses astrology and Stoicism.

Criticism
The author of Astronomica is neither quoted nor mentioned by any ancient writer. Even his name is uncertain, but it was probably Marcus Manilius; in the earlier books the author is anonymous, the later give Manilius, Manlius, Mallius. The poem itself implies that the writer lived under Augustus or Tiberius, and that he was a citizen of and resident in Rome. According to the early 1700s classicist Richard Bentley, he was an Asiatic Greek; according to the 19th-century classicist Fridericus Jacob an African. His work is one of great learning; he had studied his subject in the best writers, and generally represents the most advanced views of the ancients on astronomy (or rather astrology).
Manilius frequently imitates Lucretius, whom he resembles in earnestness and originality and in the power of enlivening the dry bones of his subject. Although his diction presents some peculiarities, the style is metrically correct.

The astrological systems of houses, linking human affairs with the circuit of the zodiac, have evolved over the centuries, but they make their first appearance in Astronomicon. The earliest datable surviving horoscope that uses houses in its interpretation is slightly earlier, c. 20 BC. Claudius Ptolemy (c. AD 130 - 170) almost completely ignored houses (Templa as Manlius calls them) in his astrological text, Tetrabiblos.
Textual history
Julius Firmicus Maternus, who wrote in the time of Constantine, exhibits so many points of resemblance with the work of Manilius that he must either have used him or have followed some work that Manilius also followed. As Firmicus says that hardly any Roman except 'Caesar' (by whom he almost certainly means Germanicus Caesar rather than Julius Caesar), Cicero and Fronto had treated the subject, it is probable that he did not know the work of Manilius. The latest event referred to in the poem is the great defeat of Varus by Arminius in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest (AD 9). The fifth book was not written until the reign of Tiberius; the work appears to be incomplete, and was probably never published, for it was never quoted by any subsequent writer.
Two manuscripts of Astronomicon made in the 10th and 11th centuries lay hidden in monasteries, one at Gembloux in Brabant (now in Brussels) and another that has come to rest in the library at Leipzig. The unknown text was rediscovered by the humanist Poggio Bracciolini somewhere not very far from Constance, during a break in the sessions of the Council of Constance that he was attending, in 1416 or 1417. The editio princeps of Astronomicon was prepared by the astronomer Regiomontanus, using very corrupted manuscripts, and published in Nuremberg about 1473. The text was critically edited by Joseph Justus Scaliger, whose edition appeared at Paris in 1579 and a second edition, collated with much better manuscripts, at Leiden in 1600. A greatly improved edition was published by Richard Bentley[1] in 1739. The edition of A.E. Housman, published in five volumes from 1903 to 1930, is considered the authoritative edition, although some may find G.P. Goold's edition for the Loeb Classical Library (Harvard, 1977) less intimidating. The first full length monograph in English on Manilius appeared in 2009.[2]

The elaborate appendix contains among other things a 'Catalogue of Astronomers, Ancient and Modern,' which is valuable for its notices of contemporary writers. The work is noticed with commendation in the 'Philosophical Transactions,' No. 110 (abridgment, ii. 185). An English translation into rhyming couplets by Thomas Creech was published in 1697.
