The first comprehensive study of the sublime in Lucan, integrating theorisations from Longinus to Lyotard to explore the concept's ethical ambivalences and establish the Bellum Civile as a central text in the history of the sublime. Of interest to classicists and readers in comparative literature, reception studies and critical theory.
