Book Synopsis Sublime Historical Experience by : F. R. Ankersmit
Book excerpt: Why are we interested in history at all? Why do we feel the need to distinguish between past and present? This book investigates how the notion of sublime historical experience complicates and challenges existing conceptions of language, truth, and knowledge.
