The Sublime in Schopenhauer's Philosophy, 1st ed. 2015

The Sublime in Schopenhauer's Philosophy transforms our understanding of Schopenhauer's aesthetics and anthropology. Vandenabeele seeks ultimately to rework Schopenhauer's theory into a viable form so as to establish the sublime as a distinctive aesthetic category with a broader existential and metaphysical significance.

Bart Vandenabeele is the Professor of Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art at Ghent University, Belgium. He has written extensively on 18th- and 19th-century philosophy, the history of aesthetics, the philosophy of art, and the philosophy of language and communication. Vandenabeele is the editor of A Companion to Schopenhauer (2012) and a member of the international advisory board of the Schopenhauer-Gesellschaft.
