Summary, etc. | Lucretius who devoted his life to the exposition of the teachings of Epicurus, wrote with the force of an unshakable personal conviction in the materialistic doctrine. This poet's view of the scientific attitude of his time towards matter, atoms, the workings of the mind, cosmology, and geology, inter alia, can be read today as it was intended two thousand years ago; as an appeal to a disillusioned age to take comfort from the sanity of science. |
