Search and Identification of Past Epicureans, Real or Fictional
This forum is for discussion of figures from history or literature about whom relatively little is known.
Listen to the latest Lucretius Today Podcast! Episode 226 is now available. We begin (with the help of Cicero's Epicurean spokesman) the first of a series of episodes to analyze the Epicurean view of the nature of the gods.
