Lucretius' De Rerum Natura exercised a major influence on the leading poets of Augustan Rome, Virgil and Horace, and created an important model for later poets. This book makes significant claims for the reception of Lucretius' scientific poem, considering the themes of history and time, the sublime and knowledge.

Hardcover. Condición: Like New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, complete with dust jacket, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.
