The Renaissance!
The idea that the Earth revolves around the Sun had been proposed in the 3rd century BC by Aristarchus of Samos. In the 16th Century this idea was revived and a fully poredictive heliocentric model was put forward by Nicolaus Copernicus. This model was subsequently extended by Johannes Kepler. William Herschel subsequently expanded this model further to show that the Sun was not the centre of the Universe.
No, the idea goes back to the ancient Greeks; Aristarchus of Samos, a mathematician and astronomer, is the first person (that we know of!) to have suggested the idea that the Sun was at the center of the solar system. But Aristotle insisted that the Earth was the center of all things, and his ideas were accepted. Copernicus was the first person to demonstrate mathematically how it would work, and his concepts have been generally proven to be correct. So he generally gets the credit.

No, William Harvey did not write "The Revolution of Heavenly Bodies." This work was written by Nicolaus Copernicus, who proposed the heliocentric model of the universe in which the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun. William Harvey, on the other hand, is known for his discoveries regarding the circulation of blood in the body.

One problem that any genealogist comes across is that names -- indeed, just about all words -- were not spelled in a consistent manner until well into the 1800s. For example, there are six extant signatures of the man now called William Shakespeare, and there are five different ways the last name appears in this person's own hand! Complicating matters is the fact that, at that time and place, last names were not well organized. It was not unusual for a people to go through their entire lives using only their "first" names, without any thought of having a family name. The "last" name of Nicolaus Copernicus, for example, comes not from his family but from the village in which he grew up. this village is spelled different ways. And, as if things aren't complicated enough, Nicolaus' nationality is unclear. The area where he was born was, at the time, multi-national, with Germans and Poles about equal in number. Nicolaus did almost all of his writings in Latin (no surprise), but there exists some of his writings in German. This, however, is not definitive, as Nicolaus was fluent in several languages. He could have been a Pole who learned German or a German who learned Polish. When Nicolaus (Latin spelling -- Nikolaus in German, Mikolaj in Polish) arrived at Padua for his studies, he signed his "family" name as Copernik. He later Latinized this to "Coppernicus," and, later still, to "Copernicus." So, how is the name "really" spelled? Take your pick on what was his "real" name.
