29.99 €
With this book the publishing house begins the publication of the multi-volume "Natural History" by the Roman writer-encyclopedist Pliny the Elder (23/24 - 79 AD), which contains almost the entire experience of ancient culture and science accumulated by the time of Pliny's life. This Volume I contains the Introduction, which describes Pliny's life and work, the Latin text and Russian translation of the "Letter of Dedication," books I and II of Pliny's "Natural History," and a commentary on the text. In his "Dedicatory Letter" Pliny introduces the reader to the problems of his work, methods of working on the material. The first book of "Natural History" gives a summary of all 37 books and a list of Greek and Roman sources of his work. The second book deals with cosmology, astronomy, and physics.
