Hi Lynnet
As this should soon be ready to catalogue can you please ensure that in the catalogue Astrophil is spelt with an i rather than an e. I misspelt this when I launched the project but would like to get it right in the catalogue.

I have edited it, but it seems that Wikipedia has it wrong, too :lol:

I have edited it, but it seems that Wikipedia has it wrong, too :lol:
There has always been some confusion about this as some of the earliest published versions, which were unauthorised, spelt it with an e, including the 1591 edition of which Wiki has a facsimile of the title page.
The general consensus is Astrophil as this means star-lover and may also be a play on the name Philip.

It wasn't a criticism, more of an observation, since we link to the Wikipedia entry.
