This work of ancient rhetoric by Aristotle was long believed to have been lost, but was rediscovered in the 19th century in a version attributed to his student Anaximenes. This edition includes a critical commentary by renowned philologist Leonhard Spengel.
Focusing on the critical analysis of Aristotle's "Poetics," this work by Leonhard Spengel delves into the foundations of ancient literary theory. It examines various interpretations, particularly those of Joh. Vahlen, whose modern take on "Poetics" is highly regarded. Spengel engages with Vahlen's views while presenting his own insights, making this book a significant contribution to literature theory. It serves as an essential resource for scholars interested in ancient Greek literature and its enduring impact on literary criticism.
