TY - GEN T1 - Reinventing the Sublime : Post-Romantic Literature and Theory. A1 - Vine, Steven LA - English PP - Chicago PB - Sussex Academic Press YR - 2013 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocn833764100 AB - Reinventing the Sublime looks at the return of the sublime in postmodernity, and at intimations of a?post-Romantic' sublime in Romanticism itself. The sublime is explored as a discourse of?invention'? taking the Latin meaning of to?come upon',?find',?discover'? that involves an encounter with the new, the unregulated and the surprising. Lyotard and Žižek, among others, have reconfigured the sublime for postmodernity by exceeding the subject-centred discourse of Romantic aesthetics, and promoting not a sublime of the subject, but of the unpresentable, the?Real', the unknown, the other.
