- Explores the aesthetic experience of the ancients across a range of media, treating literary, oral, aural, and visual arts together in a single volume
- Presents an integrated perspective on the major themes of ancient aesthetics which challenges traditional demarcations
- Raises questions about the similarities and differences between ancient and modern ways of thinking about the place of art in society
