The sixth episode of A History of Literary Criticism. The focus of today’s episode is a concept which, according to the The Sublime Reader, has interested a wide range of thinkers, including Guo Xi, Friedrich Schiller, Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley, Julia Kristeva and Frederic Jameson. Not only that, but Longinus’ work, according to G.M.A. Grube, ‘has a good claim to be considered the most enlightening critical document extant from antiquity, even in its present fragmentary state’.
