  • The Swerve: How the World Became Modern adalah sebuah buku non-fiksi karya Stephen Greenblatt yang memenangkan Hadiah Pulitzer untuk Non-Fiksi Umum tahun 2012 dan tahun 2011. The Swerve mengulas tentang keistimewaan karya penyair Romawi Lucretius, yang sempat hilang, dan bagaimana On the Nature of Things mengubah alur sejarah meski secara umum dianggap sebagai buku yang tidak jelas. Los Angeles Times menulis bahwa duta kepausan dan kolektor buku abad ke-15 Poggio Bracciolini menyelamatkan teks Lucretius dari tempat terhina di rak buku sebuah biara di Jerman. National Public Radio (NPR) menyebut bahwa buku ini menjelaskan hasil penyelamatan manuskrip On the Nature of Things terakhir oleh Bracciolini. PBS NewsHour dan The New York Times menyebut Bracciolini sebagai "kolektor buku" yang juga disebut New York Times sebagai sosok yang obsesif. The New York Times menyebut Greenblatt sebagai seorang "kritikus sastra, teoriwan, dan cendekiawan Shakespeare". Saat merekomendasikan buku ini pada tahun 2011, NPR menyebutkan bahwa Greenblatt adalah pengajar humaniora. Di situs resmi Hadiah Pulitzer, Pulitzer.org menyebut The Swerve: How the World Became Modern sebagai "buku provokatif yang mengungkapkan bahwa karya filsafat yang tidak jelas, ditemukan hampir 600 tahun yang lalu, mengubah alur sejarah tanpa memikirkan ilmu pengetahuan dan sensibilitas masa kini." Dalam sebuah kritik, The Los Angeles Times memuji syair Lucretius dan mengatakan bahwa "The Swerve" adalah "buku yang sama ajaibnya tentang bagaimana karya klasik ini nyaris hilang dan mengapa peradaban Barat akan menjadi lebih miskin andai karya tersebut benar-benar hilang." Penjelasan PBS NewsHour tentang karya ini adalah kisah tentang bagaimana "...penemuan 'On the Nature of Things' karya Lucretius membantu mengubah arah pemikiran umat manusia." NPR mengatakan The Swerve menjelaskan bagaimana On the Nature of Things "...mendorong kemajuan Renaisans dan menginspirasi para seniman, pemikir besar, dan ilmuwan." (in)
  • The Swerve: How the World Became Modern (paperback edition: The Swerve: How the Renaissance Began) is a 2011 book by Stephen Greenblatt and winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction and 2011 National Book Award for Nonfiction. Greenblatt tells the story of how Poggio Bracciolini, a 15th-century papal emissary and obsessive book hunter, saved the last copy of the Roman poet Lucretius's De rerum natura (On the Nature of Things) from near-terminal neglect in a German monastery, thus reintroducing important ideas that sparked the modern age. The title and the subtitle of the book are explained in the author's preface. "The Swerve" refers to a key conception in the ancient atomistic theories according to which atoms moving through the void are subject to clinamen: while falling straight through the void, they are sometimes subject to a slight, unpredictable swerve. Greenblatt uses it to describe the history of Lucretius' own book: "The reappearance of his poem was such a swerve, an unforeseen deviation from the direct trajectory—in this case, toward oblivion—on which that poem and its philosophy seemed to be traveling." The recovery of the ancient text is seen as its rebirth, i.e. a "renaissance". Greenblatt's claim is that it was a 'key moment' in a larger "story ... of how the world swerved in a new direction".

Il saggio ricostruisce la scoperta, da parte dell'umanista fiorentino Poggio Bracciolini, di un manoscritto del De rerum natura, opera di cui da secoli si erano perse le tracce. Greenblatt sostiene che tale scoperta, favorendo l'interesse per le idee di Epicuro, sia all'origine del Rinascimento e quindi dell'evo moderno. Poggio Bracciolini all'età di 68 anni.
