Index for The Natural History of Pliny, Volume 4 (of 6) by t

Summary:

"The Natural History of Pliny, Volume 4 (of 6)" by the Elder Pliny is a scientific publication written in the 1st century AD. This volume delves into various significant topics related to agriculture, particularly focusing on grain, its cultivation, and the historical practices of the ancients. The work serves as a profound exploration of botany and agricultural theory, underlining the importance of plants in sustaining human life. The opening of this volume introduces the reader to Pliny's advocacy for understanding and appreciating the earth as a provider of essential nourishment and resources. He highlights the distinction between beneficial and harmful plants, attributing human malice to the misuse of nature's offerings rather than to nature itself. Pliny sets the stage for a detailed examination of grain cultivation, central to ancient Roman life, and discusses historical practices and beliefs surrounding agriculture. He references significant agricultural figures, norms of land ownership, and the importance of grain as a staple in Roman society, portraying the cultivation of grain as both an art and a moral duty of the populace.
