Lucretius on Atomic Motion: A Commentary on De rerum natura 2. 1-332
Fowler, Don (, Fellow and Tutor in Classics at Jesus College, Oxford)
This is the first commentary on Lucretius' theory of atomic motion, one of the most difficult and technical parts of De rerum natura. The late Don Fowler sets new standards for Lucretian studies in his awesome command both of the ancient literary, philological, and philosophical background to this Latin Epicurean poem, and of the relevant modern scholarship.
