Searching for 'astrology' will get you half dozen of theses free to download, and there is 'Painting the Stars in a Century of Change: A Thirteenth-Century Copy of Al-Sufi's Treatise on the Fixed Stars', too.

Yes thanks for the link, there are many interesting topics there

Thanks for the link

I found also

Kitab al-Iktiyarat ?ala l-buyut al-itnai ?asar by Sahl ibn Bisr al-Israi?ili, with Its Latin Translation De electionibus, Thesis, University of Glasgow, 1985.

Thanks, Sasha!

I think Crofts's thesis about "On elections" contains the first English
translation of a work of Shal (latinezed: Zahel).

What puzzles me is whether it is a translation from Latin text or from Arabic?
Probably it's from the Latin text.

Anyway this site is a little treasure.

Thanks for the link Skar Mkhan.

I just downloaded Angela Voss' thesis about Ficino,
'Magic, astrology and music : the background to Marsilio Ficino's astrological music therapy and his role as a Renaissance magus.'

Kirk, if you read this thread, after our conversation about Ficino a while ago, I think you probably would be interested in Voss' work.

The only thing I would need now is time, to read the almost 400 pages thesis.

I think if Crofts was in possession of both languages, it would have been hard to resist to use the Arabic primarily. :) Then Ben Dykes says in his Introduction, he "consulted her critical edition and translation of the Arabic".
