Sinopsis

[THE COMPLETE TEXT] to ColumellaâÇÖsáDe Agricola,áwritten during the second half of the first century of our era,áis our most completeásurvivingáaccount of ancientáGreek and Romanáfarming. He is throughly versed in the writings of his predecessors and contemporaries andárefersátothem frequentlyáin his work.áThe large Roman farm orálatifundiumáwas a complete and self sufficient community, it supplied all of its own needs.áIn a world increasingly concerned about the future petroleum agriculture and the necessities of feeding a burgeoning population, it is hoped this treatise, written beforeáthere was any need to createáorganicáandáholisticáfarming may be of interest.áColumella was one of a number of distinguishedáSpanisháLatin writers including Seneca, Martial, Quintilian and others who dominate the literature of this period.The text here translated into English, for Books I-II, VI-VII, X-XI, XXII, is based on that ofáLundström, with some changes in orthography, punctuation, and capitalization to conform more nearly to English usage. For the remaining six books the translators have attempted to construct a reasonably comparable text by the collation of five important manuscripts with the latest printed edition, that of Schneider (1794).áI have retained the line numbers from the original as the best way to locate the Latin text.
