Book IV of Lucretius' great philosophical poem deals mainly with
the psychology of sensation ad thought. The heart of this book is a
new text, incorporating the latest scholarship on the text of
Lucretius, with a clear prose facing translation. The commentary
concentrates on the thought of the text (relating it to other
philosophers beside Epicurus) and the poetry of the Latin, placing
the text in relation to Roman literature in general, and attempting
to demonstrate the poetic genius of Lucretius. The introduction
deals with the didactic tradition in ancient literature and
Lucretius' place in it, the structure of De Rerum Natura, the
salient features of the philosophy of Epicurus and the transmission
of the text.
