Reviews

Husain shows us how the Poetics fits into Aristotle's philosophy considered as a systematic whole. In the process she offers persuasive new solutions to problems that have long plagued students of this extraordinarily difficult book. This is a work that everyone interested in Aristotle or in the philosophy of art will have to read and digest. - C. D. C. Reeve, author of Substantial Knowledge: Aristotle's Metaphysics Original and well-argued, Husain's book is a direct challenge to the growing and influential socio-political interpretation of the significance of the art of tragedy. - John P. Anton, author of Categories and Experience: Essays on Aristotelian Themes
