520    This volume brings together the three most original and 
       influential ancient Greek treatises on literature. 
       Artistotle's Poetics contains his treatment of Greek 
       tragedy: its history, nature, and conventions, with 
       details on poetic diction. Stephen Halliwell makes this 
       seminal work newly accessible with a reliable text and a 
       translation that is both accurate and readable. His 
       authoritative introduction traces the work's debt to 
       earlier theorists (especially Plato), its distinctive 
       argument, and the reasons behind its enduring relevance. 
       The essay On the Sublime, usually attributed to "Longinus"
       (identity uncertain), was probably composed in the first 
       century A.D.; its subject is the appreciation of greatness
       ("the sublime") in writing, with analysis of illustrative 
       passages ranging from Homer and Sappho to Plato and 
       Genesis. In this edition, Donald Russell has judiciously 
       revised and newly annotated the text and translation by W.
       Hamilton Fyfe and provides a new introduction. The 
       treatise On Style, ascribed to an (again unidentifiable) 
       Demetrius, was perhaps composed during the second century 
       B.C. It seems to reflect the theoretical energy of 
       Hellenistic rhetorical works now lost, and is notable 
       particularly for its theory and analysis of four distinct 
       styles (grand, elegant, plain, and forceful). Doreen 
       Innes' fresh rendering of the work is based on the earlier
       Loeb translation by W. Rhys Roberts. Her new introduction 
       and notes represent the latest scholarship.
