De Rerum Natura (On the Nature of Things) by Titus Lucretius Carus is a didactic poem in six books. Written in Latin, it explores Epicurean philosophy, physics, and cosmology. This edition, 'De Rerum Natura Libri Sex Ad Optimorum Exemplarium Fidem Emendati, Volume 1...' has been carefully amended to reflect the most reliable examples of the original text. Edited by Heinrich Karl Abraham Eichstädt, Richard Bentley, and Gilbert Wakefield, this volume offers readers a meticulously prepared version of Lucretius’s foundational work. Lucretius presents a world governed by natural laws, devoid of divine intervention, and emphasizes the pursuit of pleasure through the understanding of nature. 'De Rerum Natura' remains a cornerstone of classical literature and a vital resource for those studying ancient philosophy and science.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
