Synopsis
Longinus On The Sublime, In Writing by Dionysius Cassius Longinus is a scholarly English edition that translates and commentates the treatise On the Sublime. It focuses on how sublimity in writing is produced, perceived, and assessed, outlining the five sources of Sublimity, the balance of imagination and figure Work, and the role of diction, imagery, and structure. The work compares poetry and oratory, analyzes exemplary authors such as Homer, Demosthenes, Cicero, Shakespeare, Milton, and Burke, and includes extensive notes, emendations, and critical apparatus. The editor defends Longinus’s framework against modern critiques, situates the text in the Augustan age, and provides guidance for readers and future editors. Readers—students and scholars of classical rhetoric, literary criticism, and philology—are offered a detailed translation with philological choices, a general index, and a thorough apparatus to illuminate how sublimity arises from language, passion, and orderly form.
