The article deals with the ways in which in his "Disputationes adversus astrologiam divinatricem" (1496) Giovanni Pico della Mirandola interpreted the problem of tides, probably the most significant practical example with which he aimed to demonstrate the fallacy of astrology. The essay focuses on the polemical strategies Pico applied in his exploration of this natural phenomenon, and shows that, in rejecting the astrological interpretation of tides, Pico combined both the textual, humanist and natural philosophical approaches that he developed, in quite a controversial manner, throughout his last anti-astrological treatise.
