"It remains only to add that this new text of the De Rerum Natura, by a scholar of distinction, will deservedly receive a warm welcome from Lucretians worldwide. Colin Leach in: Classics for All (16.05.2019), https: //classicsforall.org.uk/book-reviews/titus-lucretius-carus-de-rerum-natura-vi/ ""Dank einer fast konkurrenzlosen Vertrautheit mit der Materie, die jede Seite der 'Teubneriana' unter Beweis stellt, dank seiner mustergültigen methodologischen Präzision, und nicht zuletzt dank seiner eminenten philologischen Qualitäten darf der neue Leipziger Lukrez als Meilenstein in der Geschichte der DRN-Exegese gelten, und bereits jetzt als eine der raren Referenz-Ausgaben des wohl bedeutsamsten antiken Lehrgedichts. Peter Habermehl, in: Das Altertum, 2021, Band 66, Seiten 123-127"
