| dc.description.abstract | To Be Sublime is a triptych of novellas about different experiences of grief. The protagonists of the novellas each experience a different kind of loss but are connected by their grief. Each novella contributes to the overarching question of the project: what does it mean to truly grieve? Drawing inspiration from Edmund Burke's A Philosophical Enquiry Into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful, the collection investigates the connection between grief and the sublime. Despite Burke's assertions, To Be Sublime reveals that grief embodies aspects of the sublime – pain, pleasure, terror, obscurity, transformation, astonishment, and infinity and thus explores grief as a sublime human experience. | |
