About This Item
Methuen, London, 1962. 168p. Cloth. 'Warry?s purpose is an ambitious one. It is to build up a systematic theory of aesthetics from the relevant material in Plato and Aristotle which will be saner and better balanced than modern theories, and more easily intelligible to the modern student and critic. (?). On the whole I enjoyed reading it, but I am sceptical about the claim that it systematizes the views of Plato and Aristotle and that it offers a solution to many of the problems which still occupy the minds of critics and aestheticians today.' (H.LL. HUDSON-WILLIAMS in The Classical Review (New Series), 1964, p.33-34).

About Scrinium Classical Antiquity
Scrinium stands for a specialized stock of new, secondhand and antiquarian books about Classical Antiquity. The main theme of our books is Classical Antiquity: texts and commentaries, translations, archeology, philosophy, travel, history, mythology, books for young people, philology, law, reception of classical motives in Middle Ages, Renaissance and our own time and neo-Hellenika (conptemporary Greece), and many more subjects. A more modest quantity of our books concerns countries, civilisations and religious movements on the edges of the classical world: e.g. Egypt, Middle East and Early Christianity. New books are partly in stock, partly to be ordered from publishers. We are connected to a large number of publishers and distributors, established both in the Netherlands and abroad.
