 | | First he called loudly to Ulysses peer of gods in counsel and woke him, for he was soon roused by the sound of the battle-cry. | | | In February 1992, the gravity of Jupiter swung Ulysses on to a path that looped it first under the Sun's south pole in 1994 and then over its north pole in 1995 to study the Sun and solar wind at latitudes not observable from the Earth. | | | This misfortune was entirely owing to the foolish curiosity of his shipmates, who, while Ulysses lay asleep, had untied some very bulky leathern bags, in which they supposed a valuable treasure to be concealed. |

| | A note in Ulysses Aldrovandi's Historia Monstrorum revealed that Tognina later married during her stay at Farnesi's court in Parma, and that she lived there for many years and had several children of her own, at least some of whom were as hairy as herself. | | | It is likely that this Arrigo was the same individual as the twenty-year-old son of Petrus Gonzales depicted by Aldrovandi. | | | Probably astounded that this extraordinary "wild boy" seemed intelligent and alert, Henri II ordered that he should be taught Latin and given a good education, since the king wanted to find out whether such a wild boy was at all educable. |

| | His work, viewed today, is a learned and grotesque compendium of organized ignorance. | | | Among the foremost zoologists of the Renaissance, Aldrovandi was essentially a collector of curious reports. |

| | The Search for the Giant Squid |
| | Ulysses Aldrovandi (Depiscibus, 1613) and John Jonstonus (Historia naturalis, 1649) followed with their encyclopedias, and they faithfully repeated Magnus's drawings and fanciful stories, including sea monsters with features of a giant squid. | | | It commences with a discussion of the ecclesiastics Bishops Pontoppidan and Egede, as well as the early annalists such as Olaus Magnus and Aldrovandi, and then gets to the meat of his discussion: accounts of unidentifiable animals at sea. | | | Two centuries after Olaus Magnus, another ecclesiastic, the Danish missionary Hans Egede (who eventually became the bishop of Greenland), visited that icy island early in the eighteenth century, in hope of converting the natives to Christianity. |

| | All of modern-day Bolognas museums are indebted to the university collections, which themselves are comprised of the most ancient works of the dispersed and dismembered legacy of the great Bolognese collectors: Ulysses Aldrovandi (15222 1605), Ferdinando Cospi (1609 1686) and Luigi Ferdinando Marsigli (1658 1730). | | | But it also offers a contrast between the external dimension of the piazza, with its noise and bustle, and the interior of the chapel, which evokes, thanks to the hand of a sensitive layman, the value of silence and of spiritual concentration. | | | Recently, the University created a museum of the museums, bringing much of this material together in the Palazzo Poggi, ancient seat of the Istituto delle Scienze and today the seat of the University. |

| | From this intellectual climate there emerged, in 1599, the freakish and sumptuously illustrated "Historia Monstrorum," by Ulysses Aldrovandi of Bologna. | | | The cream were probably dugongs, Asian relatives of the American manatee; they had been spotted in the Indian Ocean as early as the 4th century BC by the Greek adventurer Megasthenes. But by 1560, human cultural ideas about mermaids were routinely confused with perceptions of common marine mammals. | | | In 1608, the English navigator, Henry Hudson, was skirting the polar ice off the arctic coast of Russia in his second attempt to find a northeast route to the spice markets of China. Near the coast of Nova Zembla, Hudson made his log entry of 15 June: |
