Edmund Burke's A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful is one of the most significant works of aesthetics ever published. While many writers have explored "the beautiful," Burke’s focus was on the quality he uniquely identified as "the sublime"—an overwhelming force that evoked both terror and rapture in those who encountered it. His analysis would go on to inspire some of the most prominent thinkers of the time, including Immanuel Kant and Denis Diderot. The Routledge Classics edition offers the authoritative text of the first critical edition of Burke’s essay, along with an extensive critical and historical commentary.
