A Psychological Alternative to Schopenhauer's Theory of the Sublime

2015
The argument of the previous chapter contains a vital suggestion about the sublime, namely, that it comes to us as part of a profoundly relational state of mind.

Seminar, 1998
Both the image of Klopstock and his place in literary history have shifted during the last fifty years. Earlier researchers, for example Vietor (132) and Kaiser (107), viewed him primarily as a precursor of Sturm und Drang and Klassik by pointing to his role in the development of a literature oriented on subjectivity, as expressed in the cult of the ...

Since judgements of sublimity enrich the picture of a Kantian subject by forcefully revealing the unbounded power of the faculty of reason ...
