书籍简介

《关于我们崇高与美观念之根源的哲学探讨》内容简介：埃德蒙·伯克，这位政治哲学界的保守主义代表，他在思考美洲问题和法国大革命之前，为后人留下了什么？《关于我们崇高与美观念之根源的哲学探讨》，一部让后世学人不断致敬的哲学著作，一部把经验主义发挥到ji致的另类作品，一部还未引起国内学界足够重视的美学经典，以“实事求是”的经验主义精神，大胆挑战了自古希腊以降被普遍接受的美学、心理学传统观念，为“崇高”和“美”找到了贴近大地、贴近人本身的坚实基础，并因此深刻影响了后世的审美趋向与艺术创作方法。

'Pain and pleasure are simple ideas, incapable of definition.'

In 1757 the 27-year-old Edmund Burke argued that our aesthetic responses are experienced as pure emotional arousal, unencumbered by intellectual considerations. In so doing he overturned the Platonic tradition in aesthetics that had prevailed from antiquity until the eighteenth century, and replaced metaphysics with psychology and even physiology as the basis for the subject. Burke's theory of beauty encompasses the female form, nature, art, and poetry, and he analyses our delight in sublime

effects that thrill and excite us. His revolution in method continues to have repercussions in the aesthetic theories of today, and his revolution in sensibility has paved the way for literary and artistic movements from the Gothic novel through Romanticism, twentieth-century painting, and beyond.

In this new edition Paul Guyer conducts the reader through Burke's Enquiry, focusing on its place in the history of aesthetics and highlighting its innovations, as well as its influence on many subsequent authors from Kant and Schiller to Ruskin and Nietzsche.
