{"product_id":"9781107272170","title":"The Sublime in Modern Philosophy: Aesthetics, Ethics, and Nature","description":"In The Sublime in Modern Philosophy: Aesthetics, Ethics, and Nature, Emily Brady takes a fresh look at the sublime and shows why it endures as a meaningful concept in contemporary philosophy. In a reassessment of historical approaches, the first part of the book identifies the scope and value of the sublime in eighteenth-century philosophy (with a focus on Kant), nineteenth-century philosophy and Romanticism, and early wilderness aesthetics. The second part examines the sublime's contemporary significance through its relationship to the arts; its position with respect to other aesthetic categories involving mixed or negative emotions, such as tragedy; and its place in environmental aesthetics and ethics. Far from being an outmoded concept, Brady argues that the sublime is a distinctive aesthetic category which reveals an important, if sometimes challenging, aesthetic-moral relationship with the natural world.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120691298544,"sku":"9781107272170","price":82.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781107272170_p0.jpg?v=1763690624","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781107272170","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
