Sažetak

This article is focused on prediction as a problem of natural philosophy in the Epistemon of Pavao Skalić. Prediction can be fully understood only in the general context of Skalić’s encyclopedic project of presenting the entire human knowledge. His attempt to embrace the entire human knowledge belongs to the tradition stretching from mythopoetically founded tribal encyclopedias till modern encyclopedic compendia. Skalić’s presentation of prediction in the Epistemon is centered on astrology
as a dominant form of prediction. Skalić presented astrology in a traditional and commonly accepted form without tackling the question about the validity of astrological doctrines which were discussed in his text.
