Sommario/riassunto

Nature's Sublime provides a radical new vision of infinite nature and its deepest aesthetic dimensions as they are encountered by finite human sign users. Rather than looking to religion for healing and salvation, Nature's Sublime argues that the arts provide a deeper relationship to the vast depths of nature.
