Seneca wrote largely on natural philosophy, and magnified the importance of that study. But why? Quaest. praef. It was made subsidiary to the art of disputation; and it consequently proved altogether barren of useful discoveries.
VII. Another point ought not to be passed over in silence, as it is of much importance. It has been said in the first part of this investigation that no authentic mention is to be found of the Annals of Tacitus from the second to the fifteenth century; for the simple reason that it was not then in existence.

In an old French book, called "La Charlatanerie des Savans," is the following note: "D'autres ont propose et resolu en meme tems des questions ridicules; par exemple celle-ci: Devroit-on faire souffrir une seconde fois le meme genre de mort a un criminel, qui apres avoir eu la tete coupee viendroit a resusciter?"
