摘　　要：哥白尼“日心说”的传播,与近代早期德意志的天文学研究兴趣密切相关,德意志也成为第一个出版《天球运行论》的国家。德意志的天文学研究从15世纪晚期开始蓬勃发展,在“日心说”的推动下迎来重要转折:从翻译介绍转变为理论创新。《天球运行论》的出版过程分为观点介绍、部分出版和全文面世三个阶段。在《天球运行论》节选本和全本的出版地维滕贝格和纽伦堡,学者们在积极参与出版的过程中,也展开了一场热烈的天文学学术讨论。梳理《天球运行论》早期版本,辅以分析十五六世纪天文学作品在德意志的出版数据,既可加深对近代早期天文学知识谱系的了解,也有助于重新认识德意志科学发展的历程。The publication of De revolutionibus orbium coelestium was dependent on the research interest in astronomy in early modern Germany.Astronomical research began to develop significantly in the late fifteenth century.Their general understanding of Copernicus'heliocentric theory can be divided into three stages:the discussion of opinions,the circulation of the first draft,and the reading of the full text.De revolutionibus orbium coelestium has two early versions:the Wittenberg partial version and the Nirnberg first full version.Scholars from these two places actively participated in the printing process and engaged in discussions through letters and publications.Therefore,analyzing the early versions of the text and the early modern publication data helps to investigate the genealogy of astronomical knowledge and also re-evaluate the scientific development of Germany.
