  • Descrição:   Only in 2010 did a complete English translation finally appear, bolstered by an excellent study of his controversy with the Jesuit astronomer Christoph Scheiner in which the book played a central role.1 Otherwise, it has attracted attention recently mainly for its plates.2 In addition to the dispute with Scheiner which no doubt helped to change the initially positive attitude of Jesuit scientists to Galileo, Sunspot letters more than his Dialogue on the two chief world systems caused his troubles with the Roman Inquisition.
