Immanuel Kant’s Theory of the Sublime
1000-Word Philosophy: An Introductory Anthology (2023)
Abstract
While experiences of the sublime are often overwhelming and overpowering, overall they are deeply empowering. According to Immanuel Kant (1724-1804), the sublime empowers us by revealing the greatness (i.e., the sublimity) of our rational minds. This essay summarizes Kant’s theory of the sublime.Author's Profile
