490 1  Key themes in ancient philosophy 
504    Includes bibliographical references and index. 
505 0  1. Poetry: the roots of a problem -- 2. A radical solution
       : Plato's Republic -- 3. The natural history of poetry: 
       Aristotle -- 4. Ways to find truth in falsehood -- 5. The 
       marriage of Homer and Plato. 
520    "What is poetry? Why do human beings produce and consume 
       it? What effects does it have on them? Can it give them 
       insight into truth, or is it dangerously misleading? This 
       book is a wide-ranging study of the very varied answers 
       which ancient philosophers gave to such questions. An 
       extended discussion of Plato's Republic shows how the two 
       discussions of poetry are integrated with each other and 
       with the dialogue's central themes. Aristotle's Poetics is
       read in the context of his understanding of poetry as a 
       natural human behaviour and an intrinsically valuable 
       component of a good human life. Two chapters trace the 
       development of the later Platonist tradition from Plutarch
       to Plotinus, Longinus and Porphyry, exploring its 
       intellectual debts to Epicurean, allegorical and Stoic 
       approaches to poetry. It will be essential reading for 
       classicists as well as ancient philosophers and modern 
       philosophers of art and aesthetics"--|cProvided by
