The Sublime in Nature

At this point in the eighteenth century, however, the idea of the Sublime was associated primarily with the experience bound up with art rather than nature, an experience that contained within itself a bias toward formlessness, suffering, and dread. In the course of the centuries, it was recognized that there are beautiful and agreeable things, and terrible, frightening, and painful things or phenomena: art has often been praised for having produced beautiful portrayals or imitations of ugliness, formlessness, and terror, monsters or the devil, death or tempest. In Poetics, Aristotle explains how tragedy, representing horrific events, has to call up fear and pity in the spirit of the spectator. . . . . Page 281
