主持人详细探讨了“崇高”这一难以捉摸的概念，从其定义、引发崇高体验的条件、与美的关系以及在艺术中的表达等多个方面进行了深入分析。他指出，崇高是一种超越人类语言表达能力的体验，通常发生在人们面对大自然中巨大而危险的事物时，例如暴风雨中的海洋或险峻的阿尔卑斯山脉。这种体验并非单纯的恐惧，而是一种在恐惧中夹杂着愉悦的复杂感受，是一种不同于美的审美判断方式。他引用了朗吉努斯、伯克和艾迪生的观点，并结合自身经历和对退伍军人回忆战争经历的观察，进一步阐述了崇高体验的复杂性和主观性。他认为，崇高体验并非仅仅存在于对大自然的感知中，也可能存在于其他极端且危险的经历中，例如战争。最后，主持人预告了未来对康德和叔本华关于崇高理论的讨论。

Shownotes Transcript

On this episode of the podcast, we attempt to tackle the elusive concept of the sublime. We begin by clarifying everything the sublime is NOT, and then attempt to pin it down by considering a common motif that is has been associated with the sublime throughout history. Next, we discuss several anecdotes from people who have experienced the sublime and why one described it as “an agreeable kind of horror.” Finally, we discuss how the sublime relates to beauty and question some commonly made assumptions about ugliness. All this and more on the latest episode of Philosophize This!
