Originally published in 1936, this book examines Lucretius and his
philosophy by treating him as a poet first and foremost. Sikes
gives a background to the Epicurean philosophy with which Lucretius
is most strongly associated in order to illustrate the setting of
Lucretius' poetry, and uses mostly blank verse in his translations
from 'De Rerum Natura', compensating in an appendix where he
translates three English poems into Latin hexameter. This book will
be of value to anyone interested in Lucretius' life and works.
