Ancient thought, particularly that of Plato and Aristotle, has
played an important role in the development of the field of
aesthetics, and the ideas of ancient thinkers are still influential
and controversial today. Ancient Aesthetics introduces and
discusses the central contributions of key ancient philosophers to
this field, carefully considering their theories regarding the
arts, especially poetry, but also music and visual art, as well as
the theory of beauty more generally. With a focus on Plato and
Aristotle, the philosophers who have given us their thought about
the arts at the greatest length, this volume also discusses
Hellenistic aesthetics and Plotinus' theory of beauty, which was to
prove very influential in later thought. Ancient Aesthetics is a
valuable contribution to its field, and will be of interest to
students of philosophy and classics.
