This book revolutionizes the 1000-year old tradition that stems from the first commentaries on the Poetics by the Arabic scholars. Aristotle's treatise has always been thought to be about poetic-literary theory, with tragedy being its paradigm. Scott demonstrates, however, that Aristotle (384-322 BCE) employs poiesis not in the way universally assumed until now, as "language in verse" or "poetry," which the sophist Gorgias only coined in 415 BCE. Rather, Aristotle follows Diotima, who in the Symposium of Plato (424-347) explains poiesis as mousike kai metra (typically "'music' and verses"). One reason Aristotle employs the Diotiman and not the Gorgian sense of poiesis is that not one poem exists in the so-called "Poetics"; another reason is that the definition of tragedy includes "music." Scott subsequently demonstrates that Aristotle considers tragedy not to be a species of literature but one of dramatic "musical" theater that also requires dance and spectacle. Chapter 2 includes a revised version of Scott's "The Poetics of Performance: The Necessity of Performance, Spectacle, Music, and Dance in Aristotelian Tragedy" (Cambridge University Press, 1999). The book also supplements his arguments of "Purging the Poetics" (Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy, 2003), reprinted as Chapter 5, and provides the additional and seemingly insuperable reasons why Aristotle could not have written the clause with the words catharsis, pity, and fear in the definition of tragedy, as a number of internationally known ancient Greek specialists have already been accepting. One reason is that he defines by "biological division" and catharsis is not only missing from the preliminary divisions but is the only term in the definition not discussed in the entire treatise. A second reason is that catharsis contradicts the goal of tragedy as pleasure, itself indicated many times in the work. A third reason is that Aristotle writes in Chapter 13 that pity and fear do not belong to plots showing a virtuous person going from fortune to misfortune. Including pity and fear in the definition would thus exclude even plays like Antigone or Trojan Women from being tragedies. A fourth reason is that Aristotle says three times that tragoidos (originally "goat-song" but usually translated as "tragedy") can show agents going from misfortune to fortune, and the finest examples in Chapter 14 are the plays not like Oedipus but those ending happily, like Cresphontes, which would have no pity because of Aristotle's requirement of very significant suffering for pity. All of this allows a fresh and better reading of the treatise that even with its fundamental misinterpretations has been the foundation of Western literary, dramatic and artistic theory. VOL 1 includes Plato's and Aristotle's meaning of poiesis as "music-dance and verse" and of rhuthmos often as "dance," not "rhythm"; the importance of dance in the state for both thinkers, along with the proof that Aristotle considers tragedy to be a species of dramatic "musical" art. VOL 2 includes the issues of catharsis, pity, and fear, and a complete rebuttal of the only attempted rigorous reply (by Stephen Halliwell in Between Ecstasy and Truth, 2011) to "Purging the Poetics." Also included is a history of the Poetics; Bibliography; & the Index for both volumes.

“I know I'm going to Hell and I'm okay with that...” That was what one of my best friends told me the last time I invited him to church with me. I was a teenager and had no idea what to say to him. Now, as a 25 year ministry veteran, I've heard other people say the same thing over the years. What I've found is that nearly everyone has faulty beliefs about Hell. In this straightforward book, Christian author and Bible teacher Greg Scott offers you the straight scoop on what the Bible actually says about Hell. You'll discover: 
<ul>
<li>Who is in Hell now.</li> <li>What Satan's role in Hell is.</li> <li>What happens to people when they die.</li> <li>Why God created a horrible place like Hell.</li> <li>Who the first person in Hell is.</li> <li>How you can stay out of Hell.</li> <li>Your chances of getting out of Hell.</li> <li>How to avoid Hell without being a Christian.</li> </ul> Drawing from his many years of leading Bible studies where Christians, non-Christians, pagans, wiccans, satanists, engineers, lawyers, doctors, college students and even a few actual rocket scientists were encouraged to ask “any question about anything.” Greg offers an easy to read, yet thorough look at what the Bible says about Hell. When someone tells you they are okay with going to Hell, or you hear someone say, “Go to Hell” - you'll know exactly what to say...
