Book synopsis

Excerpt from A Philosophical Enquiry Into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beatiful I have endeavoured to make this edition something more full and satisfactory than the first. I have fought with the utmost care and read with, equal attention every thing which has appeared in publick against my opinions; have taken advantage of the candid liberty of my friends; and if by these means I have been better enabled to discover the imperfections of the work, the indulgence it has received, imperfect at was, furnished me with a new motive to spare no reasonable pains for its improvement. Though I have not found sufficient reason, or what appeared to me sufficient for making any material change in my theory, I have found it necessary in many places to explain, illustrate and enforce it.
