Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book belongs to a genre of literary criticism that emerged in the first and second century A.D. It seeks to define and categorize the aspects of 'great writing' in order to elevate literary and oratorical styles, and discusses how the ability to wield language in these ways can m…otivate people to think in new and innovative directions. The author draws upon examples from Greek literature to illustrate his points and explores many of the techniques and ideas that would later become fundamental to the Western concept of literary analysis, aesthetics, and rhetoric. The author discusses the qualities of "elevation of thought" and "vehemence of passion" as two of the main components of what makes writing 'great', and goes on to discuss the use of metaphor, similes, word choice, arrangement of clauses, and the structure of an argument to achieve these effects. His ideas continue to be used and debated today, and provide readers with an insight into the origins of modern concepts of artistic criticism. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
