Poetics - Volume Two

Full title: Poetics - Volume Two 
Author: Aristotle
Published: Hypatia Publishing 2020 
Format: Hard Cover, E-book
Content: The lost second volume of Aristotle's famous thesis on drama*. This volume delves heavily into humor, the theory of comedy and how to apply it. It is mainly notable for being a work by Aristotle that did not survive to modern times.
This is a recovered book from The Stacks. The book as with other Hypathia offerings is published both in the original Greek and in English with glosses on the more difficult translations. 
==Reaction==
Among Antiquarians a fair bit of excitement. New books by dead authors are a rare thing indeed. New books by famous and well regarded dead authors rarer still. 
Everyone else barely looked up from the most recent season of NCIS.

*The Name of the Rose book and movie the lost work of Aristotle on humor was the McGuffin around which the plot twisted. I like the movie. Anything with Sean Connery has much to recommend it.
