Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from T. Lucreti Cari, De Rerum Natura Libri Sex Most students, and general readers as well, prefer a text in either prose or poetry free from all marks not needful for purposes of reference. Any one interested in the critical study of Lucretius will of course make use of Munro's edition and Lachmann's masterly work. The Introduction was prepared with the design of offering some suggestions regarding Lucretius' personality, his mission in philosophy, and his rank as a poet. It is much compressed. The Notes have likewise been condensed; but even as they stand they may in places seem too full. For it has been the editor's aim not simply to explain the more difficult word-forms and constructions, but also to bring out the philosophic import of the passages annotated in the light of both ancient and modern thought. Most classical writings have an interest for us mainly because of the general human element in them, because they crystallize in artistic form something that appeals to thinking men of all times and of all nations. But Lucretius stands in close relation with the life of the present. His work is not lacking in the power and finish that mark the true poet, - one the duration of whose fame is to be measured not by decades, but by centuries.

Book Synopsis A Reading of Lucretius' De Rerum Natura by : Lee Fratantuono
Download or read book A Reading of Lucretius' De Rerum Natura written by Lee Fratantuono and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lucretius’ philosophical epic De Rerum Natura (On the Nature of Things) is a lengthy didactic and narrative celebration of the universe and, in particular, the world of nature and creation in which humanity finds its abode. This earliest surviving full scale epic poem from ancient Rome was of immense influence and significance to the development of the Latin epic tradition, and continues to challenge and haunt its readers to the present day. A Reading of Lucretius’ De Rerum Natura offers a comprehensive commentary on this great work of Roman poetry and philosophy. Lee Fratantuono reveals Lucretius to be a poet with deep and abiding interest in the nature of the Roman identity as the children of both Venus (through Aeneas) and Mars (through Romulus); the consequences (both positive and negative) of descent from the immortal powers of love and war are explored in vivid epic narrative, as the poet progresses from his invocation to the mother of the children of Aeneas through to the burning funeral pyres of the plague at Athens. Lucretius’ epic offers the possibility of serenity and peaceful reflection on the mysteries of the nature of the world, even as it shatters any hope of immortality through its bleak vision of post mortem oblivion. And in the process of defining what it means both to be human and Roman, Lucretius offers a horrifying vision of the perils of excessive devotion both to the gods and our fellow men, a commentary on the nature of pietas that would serve as a warning for Virgil in his later depiction of the Trojan Aeneas.

Download or read book Lucretius: De Rerum NaturaBook III written by Lucretius and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third book of Lucretius' great poem on the workings of the universe is devoted entirely to expounding the implications of Epicurus' dictum that death does not matter, 'is nothing to us'. The soul is not immortal: it no more exists after the dissolution of the body than it had done before its birth. Only if this fact is accepted can men rid themselves of irrational fears and achieve the state of ataraxia, freedom from mental disturbance, on which the Epicurean definition of pleasure was based. To present this case Lucretius deploys the full range of poetic and rhetorical registers, soberly prohibitive, artfully decorative or passionately emotive as best suits his argument, reinforcing it with vivid and compelling imagery. This new edition has been completely revised, with a considerably enlarged Commentary and a new supplementary introduction taking account of the great amount of new scholarship of the last forty years.

Book Synopsis Classical Constructions by : S. J. Heyworth
Download or read book Classical Constructions written by S. J. Heyworth and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-10-04 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Constructions is a collection of ground-breaking and scholarly papers on Latin literature by a number of distinguished Classicists, produced in memory of Don Fowler, who died in 1999 at the age of 46. The authors were all inspired by the desire to commemorate a beloved colleague and friend and have produced papers of great freshness and insight. The essays, including that by Don Fowler himself, are much concerned with the reception of the classical world, extending into the realms of modern philosophy, art history, and cultural studies. There are fundamental studies of Horace's style and Ovid's exile. The volume is unusual in the informality of the style of a number of pieces, and the openness with which the contributors have reminisced about the honorand and reflected on his early death.
