The re-use of De rerum natura in the Epigrammata Bobiensia shows a high level of mastery of the Lucretian poem, which ranges from the reworking of Lucretian nexuses, with a different way of reception, to the pronounced use of Epicurean motifs expressed through a Lucretian style in Epigr. Bob. 26. The latter includes the τόπος of the ἄριστος βίος, developed by Lucretius especially in the introduction of Book 2. Such a complex process of reworking, which is clearly not built on ideological premises, also shows the epicurean relationship between uerba and res and could suggest a direct knowledge of De rerum natura from Epigrammatists of the Sylloge, especially if the epigrammatic collection and Lucretius were received in Bobbio from the same library collection.
