Research Abstract |
In this project the investigator has tried to elucidate the significance of Julius Caesar Scaliger's Poetices Libri Septem in the history of aesthetics. But many difficulties arise from the incompleteness of the original text. So, since 1994 in Germany Luc Deitz and Gregor Vogt-Spira have been continuing to restore the original text and give the German translation. The investigator corrected the previous translation by consulting the German translation. On the basis of the philological inquiry, the investigator has acquired the orientation of the study on this Poetics. The investigator intends to give this Poetics the right position in the history of aesthetics.
