The thesis deals in four chapters with an interesting aspect of the aesthetic theories of the eighteenth century. For many years critics generally assumed that the idea of Horace's ut pictura poesis essentially held away throughout the eighteenth century and that the theory developed by Lessing in his Laokoon was quite exceptional. This thesis, however, shows that there was a steadily increasing opposition to be reckoned with.

The parallel between poetry and painting harks back to Antiquity. It seemed obvious because both arts appeal to the intellect, as well as the eye. In his Ars poetica (approx. 20 b.C.), Horace gave a terse formulation of the parallel: ut pictura poesis. Later critics dislodged what was in Horace an obiter dictum, from its context, in which Horace referred to the appropriate distance of a beholder/reader from a picture/text. In English literature, the Neo-Classical cult of the Ancients straddling the year 1700 produced a spate of translations of Horace's Ars poetica, and the translators' accompanying comments suggest a wide range of idiosyncratic applications of the Latin poet's maxim. One form of poetical expression of the parallel particularly favored by English Neo-Classical poets was landscape description. However, 'landscapes' had to fight opposition on two fronts, viz. the rigid Neo-Classical canon and the prevalent mold of the description of outdoor scenery, as seen in, for example, pastorals. This book traces the development of the maxim ut pictura poesis from a topos to a genre, viz. the Neo-Classical landscape poem. The typical poem belonging to that genre, which is given a detailed analysis in the book, contains a number of stock ingredients that meet the eyes of a beholder, who is also the narrator. Underneath the scene is a low-key social analogy; an intimation of a virtually unspoiled utopian society. At the same time, an undertone of anxiety for the preservation of this summum bonum is perceptible, and in James Thomson's landscapes dating from the 1720s, the reader feels the approach of the attitude to the items of natura naturata that we find in Wordsworth and Keats.

This book tells a remarkable story that begins in classical antiquity with ecphrasis, the art of describing the world so vividly that the audience could become imaginative eyewitnesses, and the events that caused an ideal of immediacy to be transformed into nearly its opposite, a preoccupation with representation of representation.

This is a comprehensive 1997 account of the history of literary criticism in Britain and Europe between 1660 and 1800. Unlike previous histories, it is not just a chronological survey of critical writing, but a multidisciplinary investigation of how the understanding of literature and its various genres was transformed, at the start of the modern era, by developments in philosophy, psychology, the natural sciences, linguistics, and other disciplines, as well as in society at large. In the process, modern literary theory - at first often implicit in literary texts themselves - emancipated itself from classical poetics and rhetoric, and literary criticism emerged as a full-time professional activity catering for an expanding literate public. The volume is international both in coverage and in authorship. Extensive bibliographies provide guidance for further specialised study.

The Philosophy of Umberto Eco stands out in the Library of Living Philosophers series as the volume on the most interdisciplinary scholar hitherto and probably the most widely translated. The Italian philosopher’s name and works are well known in the humanities, both his philosophical and literary works being translated into fifteen or more languages. Eco is a founder of modern semiotics and widely known for his work in the philosophy of language and aesthetics. He is also a leading figure in the emergence of postmodern literature, and is associated with cultural and mass communication studies. His writings cover topics such as advertising, television, and children’s literature as well as philosophical questions bearing on truth, reality, cognition, language, and literature. The critical essays in this volume cover the full range of this output. This book has wide appeal not only because of its interdisciplinary nature but also because of Eco’s famous “high and low” approach, which is deeply scholarly in conception and very accessible in outcome. The short essay “Why Philosophy?” included in the volume is exemplary in this regard: it will appeal to scholars for its wit and to high school students for its intelligibility.
