About this ebook
In this work the Venerable Bede elaborates on the nature and divisions of time, building on concepts introduced in his previous work on Cosmography. The text categorizes time into moments, hours, days, months, weeks, and years, detailing their definitions and calculations based on nature, authority, and custom. Bede discusses the significance of day and night, the structure of the week, and the lunar and solar months, emphasizing the various cultural interpretations of time measurement among different civilizations. This work serves as a fundamental exploration of temporal understanding in the context of historical and astronomical knowledge.
