Edmund Burke's A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful (1757) is a foundational text in aesthetics, exploring the emotional responses that different experiences evoke—particularly focusing on the concepts of the "sublime" and the "beautiful." Burke argues that the sublime, characterized by vastness, power, and terror, evokes awe and even fear, while beauty is associated with harmony, pleasure, and social affection.
