Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The ''Works of Dionysius Longinus on the Sublime'' is a treatise concerning the art of writing and the qualities that make writing truly great. Written by Dionysius Longinus, a Greek writer and literary critic of the 1st century AD, this book is an exploration of the concept of ''the sublime'' in literature. Longinus argues that great writing must possess certain qualities, such as passion, emotion, and grandeur, in order to truly move and inspire readers. He also discusses the importance of language and style, and provides examples of great writing from ancient Greek and Roman literature. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the art of writing, literary criticism, or ancient Greek literature.1712. It must be a very unpleasing reflection to anyone who has a just and critical taste of the writings of the ancients to consider how many noble and useful works have been swallowed up in the ocean of time. Of what important value several of them were is to be collected from the character which contemporary authors and others have given to them, a circumstance that serves only to aggravate our pain for their loss. Of all the labors which have suffered or totally perished in this wreck, there are few deserving of more regret than those various tracts of Longinus.

But his translation of Longinus does not show any mark of dullness, while the original remarks connected with it show that, if he could not exactly produce poetry, he could appreciate it in Spenser and Shakespeare to a degree not common in his day."
