Cleomedes
At some time around 200 AD, the Stoic philosopher and teacher Cleomedes delivered a set of lectures on elementary astronomy as part of a complete introduction to Stoicism for his students. The result was "The Heavens" (Caelestia). This book contains an English translation of "The Heavens", along with an introduction, notes, and technical diagrams.
