Description:
Paperback / softback. New. The "De Rerum Natura" of Lucretius is at first sight something of an oddity: a scientific treatise and at the same time a poem of great power and intensity. This book seeks to resolve the apparent contradiction by locating Lucretius' poem in the context of the ancient tradition of didactic epic.
