Hardback. Ada Palmer explores how Renaissance poets and philologists, not scientists, rescued Lucretius and his atomism theory.

Series: I Tatti Studies in Italian Renaissance History. Num Pages: 340 pages, black & white illustrations, black & white tables, figures. BIC Classification: HBLH; HPCF; HRAM3.
