Reviews
'Most studies of the sublime simply bypass a lot of criticism because reviewing the history of the criticism of nineteenth-century aesthetics is burdensome. Ibata, instead, puts her work on Burke in the context of as much previous work as is practically feasible and puts Burke's treatise in relation to contemporary accounts of the sublime in a way that is rarely, if ever, accomplished...she helps the reader to understand what is unique in Burke and which other writers on the sublime influenced each aspect of his ideas.' European Romantic Review 'Conducted with rigor and erudition, this study is supported by an abundant iconography (5 color plates and 33 illustrations in white and black inserted in the text) presented in an elegant volume.' XVII-XVIII -- .
