Ecrit entre 334 et 337 et dedie a Constantin, cet ouvrage, le plus long traite d'astrologie que nous ait legue l'Antiquite, se presente a la fois comme un manuel de formation et un aide-memoire destine au praticien. Le livre I contient une defense de l'astrologie contre les sceptiques, en montrant l'influence determinante des astres sur des hommes comme Sylla ou Plotin, tandis que le livre II presente des rudiments d'astronomie et d'astrologie, des notions et termes qui seront mis ensuite en oeuvre dans le reste de l'ouvrage.
Le texte repose sur une collation complete des manuscrits et un examen attentif des contributions des philologues. La traduction est la premiere en francais. Compte tenu du caractere technique de l'ouvrage, les notes sont assez detaillees et devraient permettre a tout lecteur de s'orienter dans ce texte.
