Summary:
This eloquent 1757 treatise examines how interactions with the
physical world affect formulation of ideals related to beauty and
art. Tremendously influential on the development of aesthetic theory,
this formative dissertation was among the first explorations of the
concept of the sublime and remains a thought-provoking study for
modern readers.
