  An exploration of the nature of the sublime, one of the important topics in debates about modernity, politics and art. Through an examination of terror, transcendence and the 'other' in key European philosophers and writers, this book articulates a radical 'female sublime'. Its central feature is its engagement with debates around '9/11' and race.
