| Dionysius Longinus On The Sublime (1838) is a book written by the ancient Greek philosopher and literary critic, Dionysius Longinus. The book is a treatise on the concept of the sublime in literature and art. Longinus defines the sublime as a quality of greatness or excellence that transcends the ordinary and inspires awe and admiration in the reader or viewer. He argues that the sublime is achieved through the use of powerful language, vivid imagery, and emotional intensity. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the sublime. Longinus examines the use of figurative language, such as metaphors and similes, to create powerful images that evoke strong emotions in the reader. He also discusses the importance of rhythm and sound in creating a sense of grandeur and majesty. In addition to his analysis of literary techniques, Longinus also provides examples of works of literature and art that embody the sublime. He cites the works of Homer, Plato, and Virgil as examples of writers who achieved the sublime through their use of language and imagery. He also examines the works of artists such as Michelangelo and Raphael, who created sublime works of art through their use of composition and color. Overall, Dionysius Longinus On The Sublime (1838) is a seminal work in the field of literary criticism and an important contribution to the study of aesthetics. It continues to be studied and discussed by scholars and critics today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
