SUMMARY
'One of the greatest essays ever written on art.' - The GuardianWhilst many writers have taken up their pen to write of 'the beautiful', Burke's subject here was that quality he uniquely distinguished as 'the sublime' - an all-consuming force beyond beauty that compelled terror as much as rapture in all who beheld it. It was an analysis that would go on to inspire some of the leading thinkers of the Enlightenment, including Immanuel Kant and Denis Diderot. First published:Burke, Edmund is the author of 'Philosophical Enquiry into the Sublime and Beautiful', published 2008 under ISBN 9780415453264 and ISBN 0415453267.
