Sacramental Commodities: Gift, Text, and the Sublime in De Quincey
Sacramental Commodities Gift Text and the Sublime in De Quincey
Author: Charles J. Rzepka
This study argues that in the 18th and early 19th centuries writers fought against a perceived loss of authority by developing a theory of the rhetorical sublime. Against this background, the book examines the life and work of writer and opium addict Thomas De Quincey.
