Abstract: This research aims to look at the ancient critical discourse and its aesthetic tendency, so that we want to reach the most important mechanisms of literary work such as the standards of stimulus and response in criticism.

And the standards of casting, the quality of description, and the standards of musical rhythm. We have concluded that ancient critics used ethical standards in casting texts.
