Book excerpt: On Marvellous Things Heard (Greek: ???? ????????? ??????????, Latin: De mirabilibus auscultationibus) is a collection of thematically arranged anecdotes traditionally attributed to Aristotle but some say written by a Pseudo-Aristotle, though this treatise’s “spuriousness has never been seriously contested. The material included in the collection mainly deals with the natural world (e.g., plants, animals, minerals, weather, geography). The work is an example of the paradoxography literary genre.
