Aristotle presents his landmark theory of tragedy, mimesis, and the structure of epic poetry, laying the groundwork for centuries of aesthetic thought. Horace instructs the aspiring poet in the art of craft and decorum, arguing for the unity of form and purpose in great writing. Longinus, meanwhile, uncovers the sources of sublimity in literature — that quality of greatness which transports and overwhelms the reader — cementing this anthology as an indispensable cornerstone for anyone serious about understanding how and why literature achieves its power.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956180627675,"sku":"2026200011226-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/0e65988e-85ad-42c7-8349-609bd22bbc9f.png?v=1783498774","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011226-secondhand-classical-literary-criticism","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
