During the thousand years that separate Homer from Plotinus, the
Greeks and Romans not only created two great literatures and most
of our literary genres, they also developed theories of literature
and methods of criticism. These, though very different from our
own, have nevertheless greatly influenced modem thinking,
especially during the early centuries of our modern literatures.
Poets like Pindar, Aristophanes, and Horace, philosophers like
Plato, Aristotle, and Philodemus, orators like Cicero and
Quintillian, literary scholars like Dionysius of Halicarnassus and
Longinus, all of these have left us records of their various points
of view. In this book, Professor Grube, a recognised authority in
this field, gives us a clear, full and reliable analysis of the
ancient critical texts and traces the birth and developments of
critical thinking throughout the classical centuries.
