Scriptores Rei Rusticae Veteres Latini, edited by Johann Matthias Gesner, is a seminal collection of ancient Latin texts on agriculture. This Volume 1 features the writings of Cato and Varro, two of the most important Roman authors on rural life and farming practices. Their works provide invaluable insights into the agricultural techniques, economic considerations, and social structures of the Roman world.
Cato's De Agri Cultura (On Agriculture) offers practical advice on managing a farm, including instructions on cultivating crops, raising livestock, and overseeing slaves. Varro's Rerum Rusticarum (On Agriculture) is a more comprehensive treatise covering a wide range of agricultural topics, from the selection of farm sites to the management of vineyards and olive groves.
This collection is an essential resource for students and scholars of Roman history, classical literature, and agricultural history, offering a direct window into the practical and intellectual world of ancient Roman farming.
