In recent years Kant's aesthetic theory has been the subject of a widespread revival of interest amongst English-speaking philosophers. The revival, however, has not encompassed Kant's theory of the sublime. The aim of this monograph is to concentrate exclusively on this theory. The author's arguments centre on the links which Kant made between morality and aesthetics, and seek to modify Kant's approach so as to establish the sublime as a viable aesthetic concept with a broader cultural significance.
