SUMMARY:“Signs of Time: and the Science of the Stars in the Renaissance”
LOCATION:Harvey Cushing/John Hay Whitney Medical Library Sterling Hall of 
 Medicine\, Rotunda
DESCRIPTION:“Signs of Time” will be on view at the Sterling Hall of Medici
 ne Rotunda within the Medical Library from Sept. 4\, 2026 - Feb. 22\, 202
 7\n\n“Signs of Time” is a story about “the science of the stars” in the R
 enaissance: a cross-cultural prognostic practice that brought celestial e
 vents to bear on interpretations of time\, from seasonal cycles and cours
 es of illness to calendar reform and biblical chronology. At the center o
 f this story are the graphic traditions that defined the practice and ren
 dered astronomical time intelligible\, narratable\, and consequential for
  earthly experience.\n\nShowcasing an extraordinary array of rare books a
 nd early printed works from the collections of the Medical Historical Lib
 rary\, the exhibition asks: What celestial phenomena counted as signs of 
 time? How were those signs read and recorded? And who had the authority t
 o interpret them? From the politics of prognostication to the physics of 
 planetary influence\, “Signs of Time” presents a unique chapter in the hi
 story of science: when medical\, theological\, and geopolitical interests
  converged around efforts to understand\, organize\, and claim authority 
 over time through the language of the stars.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/even
