Classical Literary Criticism by D. A. Russell (Emeritus Professor of Classical Literature in the University of Oxford and Fellow, Emeritus Professor of Classical Literature in the University of Oxford and Fellow, St John's College, Oxford)

This excellent and accessible work includes many major texts in translation: Aristotle's Poetics, Longinus' On Sublimity, Horace's Art of Poetry, Tacitus' Dialogues, and extracts from Plato and Plutarch.
