Description for Coleridge's Writings: On the Sublime
Paperback. Series: Coleridge's Writings. Num Pages: 213 pages, biography. BIC Classification: DSBF; DSC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140. .
This new volume demonstrates the extent and diversity of Coleridge's writings on the sublime. It highlights the development of his aesthetic of transcendence from an initial emphasis on the infinite progressiveness of humanity, through a fascination with landscape as half-revealing the infinite forces underlying it, and with literature as producing a similar feeling of the inexpressible, to an increasing emphasis on contemplating the ineffable nature of God, as well as the transcendent power of Reason or spiritual insight.
