Description

Explore the connection between aesthetic judgment and scientific discovery in Beyond the Finite: The Sublime in Art and Science. Published by Oxford University Press, this work examines how the concept of the sublime serves as a bridge between art and morality. It moves beyond the Romantic Movement to investigate how science makes claims to the sublime through the study of the extreme and the unrepresentable. This book addresses the challenges of depicting complex phenomena that defy standard measurement or imagination. From the concept of negative mass to the folding of contagious proteins, the text looks at how science confronts the unrepresentable. It provides a deep look at how emergent phenomena appear and how they can be captured. Readers will find a unique perspective on how the limits of human imagination are tested by both the beauty of art and the discoveries of modern science.
