The nature of the subject needed the collaboration of a Hellenist and a botanist, in order to ensure the accuracy of the translation and the specificity of the footnotes and indexes. Beside the large number of footnotes, there is an introduction that identifies Theophrastus, his intellectual circle and the scientific structure of his exposition. The volume also includes a bibliography and eight indexes: four of Greek nomenclature and its translation into Portuguese, referring to the chapters of Theophrastus' text; the others of Latin names given to the species (plants and animals), referring to the footnotes. 610 $aBotany 610 $aPeripatetics 610 $aTheophrastus 610 $aGreek science 700 $aJorge Paiva$4auth$01280986 702 $aFátima Silva$b Maria de 702 $aPaiva$b Jorge 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910420935103321 996 $aTeofrasto$93387936 997 $aUNINA
