Plutarch's Science of Natural Problems: A Study with Commentary on "Quaestiones Naturales"

Michiel Meeusen | 2016 | ISBN: 9462700842 | English | 570 pages | PDF | 2 MB

Series: Plutarchea Hypomnemata

Michiel Meeusen’s book represents an important contribution to our understanding of both the ancient genre of natural aetiology and of the Corpus Plutarcheum. Its main purpose is to assess Plutarch’s contribution to natural philosophy by means of a thorough exploration and contextualization of his Natural Problems ( Quaestiones naturales), constituting by far the most detailed and complete study of this (at least until recently) neglected work.
