Kantian Sublime - From Morality to Art

Zusatztext 'Crowther's book is most welcome! not just as a pedagogical aid but in its own right.'Mary Mothersil! Columbia University! Mind! Vol. 101! No. 401! Jan 1992 Klappentext Paul Crowther thus breaks new ground by providing what is probably the first monograph in any language to be devoted exclusively to Kant's theory of the sublime. His arguments center on the links which Kant makes between morality and anesthetics, and seek ultimately to modify Kant's approach so as to establish the sublime as a viable aesthetic concept with a broader cultural significance. Zusammenfassung A monograph devoted exclusively to Kant's theory of the sublime, a subject currently witnessing a revival amongst European philosphers in relation to debates about the nature of postmodernism.
