About this listen

Explore the marvels of the natural world through Naturalis Historia, an incredible encyclopedia crafted by Pliny the Elder around AD 77-79. This monumental work is one of the largest surviving texts from the Roman Empire, aiming to capture the breadth of ancient knowledge. Pliny draws on esteemed authorities and provides a detailed index, setting a benchmark for future encyclopedias. Covering both the organic domains of plants and animals and the inorganic world of minerals, this fourth volume spans books sixteen to twenty. Delve into Book 16 on forest trees, Book 17 about cultivated trees, Book 18 on grains, Book 19 focusing on flax and garden plants, and Book 20 which discusses remedies derived from these plants. Experience the richness of nature and its profound significance through Pliny’s insightful lens.
