Pliny the Elder [electronic resource] : themes and contexts / edited by Roy K. Gibson, Ruth Morello. 1st ed. Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2011. 1 online resource (262 p.) text txt computer c online resource cr Mnemosyne supplements. Monographs on Greek and Latin language and literature, 0169-8958 ; v. 329 Description based upon print version of record. English Pliny's Naturalis Historia – a brilliant and sophisticated encyclopaedia of the scientific, artistic, philosophical, botanical and zoological riches of the ancient world – has had a long career in the footnotes of historical studies. This is a phenomenon born of the sense that the work was there to consult, or to ‘use’, as a resource to aid investigation of specific technical issues or passages, of Quellenforschung, or of delimited topic areas. The contributors to the present volume both represent and join a new generation of critics who have begun to try to ‘read’ this monumental text, and – by examining the dominant motifs which give shape and order to the work – to construct frameworks within which we may understand and interpret Pliny’s overarching agenda. Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
