Biography and Contribution of
c.213–273
By: Andre Philip C. Tacderas
 critics have disputes among themselves about his name,
time and birth place. According to them, he is either
or
 Greek rhetorician and philosopher of the Neoplatonic
school
 He taught rhetoric at Athens
 He later became counselor to Queen Zenobia of
Palmyra; when the anti-Roman policy he had advocated
failed, he was delivered to the Romans, who executed
him as a traitor
 First literary critic to borrow
from a different literary tradition
and earning him the title of the
first comparative critic in literary
history
 Concentrated on the single
element of a text and he is the
first critic to define a literary
classic
 One cannot accurately judge a
literary work, he argues, unless
one is exceeding well read
 Longinus’s ‘ ’ is a critical
document of great world and significance that
garners an important place in the history of
literature
 When our intellects, our emotions, and our
wills harmoniously respond to a given work of
art, we know we have been touched by the
sublime
 A well-read critic can evaluate and recognize
what is great or what Homer calls sublime
 Before Longinus, the critics
believed that the function of
poetry was to instruct or to
delight or both and if it is
prose, its function was to
persuade also. But Longinus
was not satisfied with this
formula.
 He said that the epics of Homer, the
lyrics of Sappho and Pindar, and the
tragedies of Aeschylus and Sophoclea
were great not only account of these
elements only, but also one account of
their sublimity.
So a great work of art does
not only please or instruct, but it also
moves, transports, elevates. It pleases
all and it peas all the time.
 He believed “
.”
According to him the work
of art become excellent, only
when it has power to
sublimate, By sublimity
Longinus means ‘ ’
or ‘
.
 Thus Longinus is the golden balance between Plato
and Aristotle, Homer and Shelley, classicism and
Romanticism down to Eliot’s modernism. As a critic he
displays a rare breath and universality of outlook.
 Moreover, his mind is free from any prejudice. His
judgments are essentially apt. They have been
supported by posterity. Atkins says, “
.”
