Geoponicon: Text and Commentary, Paperback / softback Book

Geoponicon: Text and Commentary Paperback / softback

Edited by Paul Anton de Lagarde

Part of the Analecta Gorgiana series

Paperback / softback

Description

Lagarde’s edition of the British Museum manuscript of an abridged version of the Geoponica is here made available again for the use of scholars and interested historians. Originally composed by Vindonius Anatolius of Beirut, a fourth-century Greek author, the Geoponica is an example of early natural science, a collection of agricultural tracts.

Published here with Lagarde’s Latin commentary on the material from his Gesammelte Abhandlungen, this obscure and difficult text is now available for the first time with the insightful comments of the linguist who edited the Syriac text.
