Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Enter the 1st century Roman world where curiosity has no limits. Rome catalogued the whole Earth. The Natural History of Pliny (Volume V), in the Pliny the Elder translation by John Bostock and H. T. Riley, draws you deep into antiquity's boldest classical encyclopedia translation. It is ancient Rome literature at its most expansive, alive with report, rumour, and observation.This ancient natural history text follows Pliny's restless inquiry into roman science and nature, drawing on Greek Roman naturalists across the empire. In this volume, attention shifts to the substance of civilisation itself: minerals, gems and metals, their uses, lore, and the values they carried. Pliny notes what artisans, physicians, and travellers believed alongside what he could weigh, compare, or question, so you hear the pulse of Roman taste and commerce. Read for sheer wonder, or consult it as a classical studies reference book; the prose moves briskly, while an annotated classics edition approach, with clarifying notes and careful English, keeps the learning accessible.As part of a complete translation collection that has shaped modern understanding of ancient zoology and botany, medicine, geography, and material culture, Pliny's encyclopaedia remains a lasting landmark in the history of knowledge. Whether you read straight through or dip in for a single entry, it rewards the curious and the committed. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. …
