Book Description:

Lucretius' poem On the Nature of Things is one of the great examples of Latin literature and Karl Lachmann's edition of the work from 1850 can be considered the beginning of modern textual criticism. Lachmann demonstrates how the three main manuscripts all derive from one archetype by creating a stemma.
