A poetic exploration of science, nature, and serenity – Lucretius' vision of the universe still speaks to modern minds.
In On the Nature of Things, Roman poet-philosopher Lucretius introduces Epicurean philosophy through vivid, rhythmic verse. He explains the physical universe – atoms, the soul, the senses – with astonishing clarity and beauty, aiming to free the reader from fear, superstition, and the tyranny of the unknown.
This work is both a scientific treatise and a guide to emotional liberation. Lucretius urges us to embrace reason, seek peace of mind, and understand the true nature of life, death, and the cosmos.
After listening to this book, you will learn:
On the Nature of Things is a powerful invitation to explore the world with both intellect and wonder – and to live with greater clarity and courage.
