The Democratic Sublime: On Aesthetics and Popular Assembly
Frank, Jason (Professor and Robert J. Katz Chair of Department of Government, Professor and Robert J. Katz Chair of Department of Government, Cornell University)
The Democratic Sublime offers an interdisciplinary exploration of how popular assemblies-crowds, demonstrations, gatherings of the "people out of doors"-came to be central to the political aesthetics of democracy during the age of democratic revolutions (1776 to 1848). Engaging with a wide range of sources, from canonical political theorists (Rousseau, Burke, and Tocqueville) to the novels of Hugo, the visual culture of the barricades, and the memoirs ofpopular insurgents, The Democratic Sublime demonstrates how making the people's sovereign will tangible to popular judgment became a central dilemma of modern democracy, and how it remains so today.
