Abstract

In this article I reflect on the experience of the sublime based on Husserlian phenomenology. The aim is to show that the sublime allows us to visualize the boundaries of human thought and that it transcends, of course, the aesthe-tic and artistic spheres. The exposition of the ideas of Longinus and Kant on the subject will be held as a starting point for the presentation and comment of the Husserlian proposal.
