There are few ancient authors as compelling as Lucretius: scientist, poet, philosopher, and passionate observer of nature. While Caesar, Cicero and Vergil have long vied for first place in the classical curriculum, Lucretius' treatment of universal human matters rightfully earns him a place in their company. Informed by the latest in Lucretian scholarship, Dr. Bonnie Catto focuses on excerpts from De Rerum Natura, and discusses college-level linguistic and intellectual aids for translating and comprehending this difficult but magnificent Roman poet.
