This 2007 Companion is both an introduction to, and a series of thought-provoking essays on, one of the greatest of Latin poets, Lucretius. It gives equal space to Lucretius' ancient contexts and to his post-classical reception and is completely accessible to the reader who has only read Lucretius in translation.
