Description: |
The essays presented in the volume "Lucrezio. La natura e la scienza", edited by Marco Beretta and Francesco Citti and published by Olschki, aim at illustrating the scientific dimension of Lucretius' poem "De rerum natura", whose contents are normally examined from a literary point of view. The philological approach and the stylistic and historical acquisitions applied to a new kind of research result in an interdisciplinary survey which has favoured the contextualization of Lucretius within the history of scientific thought. |
