Titus Lucretius Carus was a Roman poet and philosopher. He is believed to have lived in the 1st century BC. His most famous work is "De rerum natura" (On the Nature of Things), an epic poem that expounds the Epicurean philosophy. He discusses physics, ethics, and religion, seeking to free humanity from the fear of death and the gods through reason and understanding of nature.
