Description: “On the sublime” marks an important moment in the history of rhetoric, as rhetoric is presented therein as an autonomous, sublime object. Through notions of upsos and phusis, and an amalgamation of Ciceronian/Isocratean and Gorgianic notions of rhetoric, Longinus frees rhetoric from the project of legitimization. (Année philologique)
