Summary
Seneca’s Natural Questions covered a similar scope of subject matter as Aristotle’s Meteorology. Seneca differed from Aristotle by insisting that even sublunar phenomena follow the same natural laws and have the same intelligibility as the rest of the universe. “If I had not been admitted to these studies, it would not have been worthwhile to be born...” Seneca, Natural Questions. This volume was printed by the press of Aldus Manutius.
