The work of this famous intellectual and philosopher from Chaeronea consists of forty-one natural problems that address a wide variety of questions, sometimes rather peculiar ones, and answers pertaining to ancient Greek physics, including problems related to the fields of zoology, botany, meteorology and their respective subdisciplines. 0By providing a thorough study of and commentary on this generally neglected text, written by one of the most influential and prolific writers from Antiquity, this book contributes to our better understanding of Plutarch?s natural scientific programme and, the condition and role of ancient natural science in the Roman Imperial Era in general. 588 0 Print version record. 600 00 Plutarch|xCommentaries|xHistory and criticism. 600 07 Plutarch.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00032370 650 0 Philosophy, Ancient|xCommentaries|xHistory and criticism. 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMeeusen, Michiel.|tPlutarch's science of natural problems.|dLeuven : Leuven UP 2016|z9789462700840 |w(OCoLC)959365396 830 0 Plutarchea hypomnemata. 914 ocn987911321 994 92|bCKE
