Résumé
The Oxford Tables of 1348, also called Tabule anglicane, were computed for the meridian of Oxford in the framework of Alfonsine astronomy. They had a remarkable success, for they are extant in a good number of Latin manuscripts, and they were adapted repeatedly. This paper focuses on these adaptations: the Tabule Parisiensis, with radices for the year 1368 complete and the meridian of Paris, extant in Hebrew and Latin manuscripts; the version made by Mordecai Finzi, with radices for 1443 complete and the meridian of Mantua, preserved in a unique Hebrew manuscript; and the partial adaptation by Henry Baers printed in Latin in Louvain in 1528.
