ISBN10: 0415115450, ISBN13: 9780415115452, [publisher: London, New York / Routledge. 27.10.1994.] Softcover 357 p., 33 plates. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - very good condition - Ancient Natural History surveys the ways in which people in the ancient world thought about nature. The writings of Aristotle, Theophrastus, Strabo and Pliny are examined, as well the popular beliefs of their contemporaries. Roger French finds that the same natural-historical material was used to serve the purposes of both the Greek philosopher and the Christian allegorist, or of a naturalist like Theophrastus and a collector of curiosa like Pliny. He argues convincingly that the motives of ancient writers on nature were rarely scientific and, indeed, that there was no science at all in the ancient world. -- This book will make fascinating reading for students, academics and anyone who is interested in the history of science, or in the ancient history, of ideas. -- A sacrificial calf -- The owl of Athena -- Red-figure perfume bottle, showing a camel -- The ichneumon -- Dolphins in a Roman mosaic -- Deer with horns, seized by Diana -- Deer without horns -- Pigmy carrying a crane -- Getting in the olive harvest -- An Amazon killed in battle -- An Amazon attacks a fallen Greek -- Symbolic figure of Africa and India Centaur attacking man -- The Stoic emperor Marcus Aurelius -- The young Com ...
