About this book

Ancient Literary Criticism: The Principal Texts in New Translations by Russell, D. A.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780198143604.

Ancient literary criticism has always been a particularly inaccessible subject for the non-specialist. The relevant texts are difficult, diverse, and full of rhetorical language and concepts remote from our own; moreover, many are not available in English. This edition provides the principal texts in translation: Aristotles Poetics, Horaces Art of Poetry, Longinus On Sublimity, Tacitus Dialogues, and extracts from Plato and Plutarch. The editors have written a new introduction for this edition, and provided explanatory notes.
