On the Nature of Things
Lucretius · LVCRETIVS
Six books of Epicurean physics in hexameters — atoms, void, the fear of death and the plague at Athens — in the Latin. Complete in 308 pages, in the original Latin; no English anywhere in the volume.
Set in Cormorant Garamond with quiet marginal numbers every ten lines, editorial lacunae marked, the transmitted transpositions kept as editors print them.
