Naturaleza y vida campesina en la cultura latina (De re rustica)
Resumen
Nature and rural life in classical Roman Culture <i>De Re Rustica</i>
The concept of nature was always important in the ancient world. Gods and men communicated between themselves in their myths, in transfigurations, by means of what for all of them was nature. Nature as a criterion, as a moral standard, not only the stage for doing, a space for human activity, but also the object of ethical intentionality. It was so in the Greek world and also in the Roman world. The science of agriculture was, precisely, an art, ars. Consequently, on writing about it, a rich and varied literature arose. A concept of nature, thus, that was at the same time a concept of life and, in those times, of rural life. Hence the title and the purpose of this paper.
Key words: Nature, norm, morality, ethics, classical rural life, Roman gods, agriculture.
