De Re Rustica : ウィキペディア英語版
Columella

Lucius Junius Moderatus Columella (; 4 – c. 70 AD) is the most important writer on agriculture of the Roman empire. Little is known of his life. He was probably born in Gades, Hispania Baetica (modern Cádiz), possibly of Roman parents. After a career in the army (he was tribune in Syria in 35), he took up farming. His ''Res rustica'' in twelve volumes has been completely preserved and forms an important source on Roman agriculture, together with the works of Cato the Elder and Varro, both of which he occasionally cites. A smaller book on trees, ''De arboribus'', is usually attributed to him.
Columella used many sources no longer extant, to which he is one of the few references; these include Aulus Cornelius Celsus, the Carthaginian writer Mago, Tremellius Scrofa, and many Greek sources. His uncle Marcus Columella, "a clever man and an exceptional farmer" (VII.2.30), had conducted experiments in sheep breeding, crossing colourful wild rams, introduced from Africa for gladiatorial games, with domestic sheep,〔 and may have influenced his nephew's interests. Columella owned farms in Italy; he refers specifically to estates at Ardea, Carseoli, and Alba,〔 and speaks repeatedly of his own practical experience in agriculture.
Previously known only in fragments, the complete treatise of Columella was among those discovered in monastery libraries in Switzerland and France by Poggio Bracciolini and his assistant Bartolomeo di Montepulciano during the Council of Constance, between 1414 and 1418.〔
In 1794 the Spanish botanists Jose Antonio Pavón y Jimenez and Hipólito Ruiz López named a genus of Peruvian asterid Columellia in his honour.〔
==''Res rustica''==

The book is presented as advice to a certain Publius Silvinus.
Structure of ''Res rustica'' ("Agriculture"):
*soils
*viticulture
*fruits
*olive trees
*6: big animals: cattle, horses and mules
*7: small animals: asses, sheep, goats, pigs, dogs
*8: fish and fowl: chickens, doves, thrushes, peacocks, Numidian chicken and guinea fowl, geese, ducks, fish ponds
*9: wild animals: enclosures for wild animals, bee-keeping, production of honey and wax
*10: gardens
*personnel management
*calendars
*household management
Book 10 is written entirely in dactylic hexameter verse, in imitation of, or homage to, Virgil. It may initially have been intended to be the concluding volume, books 11 and 12 being perhaps an addition to the original scheme.〔
A complete but anonymous translation into English was published by Millar in 1745.〔 Excerpts had previously been translated by Bradley.〔
