Edmund Burke: Modernity, Politics, and Aesthetics examines the philosophy of Burke in view of its contribution to our understanding of modernity. Stephen K. White argues that Burke shows us how modernity engenders an implicit forgetfulness of human finitude. White illustrates this theme by showing how Burke's political thought, his judgment of the modern system of morality and policy, and its taste for a false sublime are structured by his aesthetics.

Industry Reviews

The anthology presents novel approaches, a variety of perspectives, and a wide sample of the problems of different professions. All in all, it is a valuable contribution to the literature and well worth reading.--Ethics: An International Journal of Social, Political, and Legal Philosophy
