Pomponius Mela... - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Redécouvrez l'Å"uvre classique de Pomponius Mela, un géographe romain de l'époque impériale. Bien que peu d'informations subsistent sur sa vie, son traité, souvent intitulé "De situ orbis" ou "De chorographia," est un compendium précieux de connaissances géographiques du monde connu des Romains.

Ce texte offre un aperçu fascinant des perceptions géographiques antiques, des descriptions des continents, des peuples et des coutumes, tel que les Romains les imaginaient. L'Å"uvre de Mela se distingue par son style littéraire soigné et sa tentative de présenter une vue d'ensemble cohérente du monde, malgré les lacunes et les inexactitudes inhérentes aux connaissances de l'époque. "Pomponius Mela..." est essentiel pour les historiens, les géographes et tous ceux qui s'intéressent à la cartographie historique et à la vision du monde dans l'Antiquité.
