Scientific paper

This illustrated talk details the long history of the successive objections to Greek Ptolemaic astronomy that were voiced by astronomers working in the Islamic civilization before the time of Copernicus. It also illustrates the alternative astronomies that were suggested, the mathematical theorems that were proposed for that purpose and the deployment of the same theorems and the same techniques later on by Copernicus himself in his own astronomy.
