In heel Europa werden drama en theater in de tweede helft van de achttiende eeuw gedragen door een hartstochtelijk verlangen naar natuurlijkheid. Drama en theater moesten natuurlijk zijn of niet zijn, zo valt te lezen in de theater-esthetische geschriften van Diderot tot Mercier, van Lessing tot Goethe. Na de succesvolle opvoering in de Muntschouwburg van Diderots burgerlijke drama Le père de famille in 1761 brandde ook in Brussel de discussie in volle hevigheid los. Maar wat behelsde het verlangen naar natuurlijkheid nu precies? Waar kwam het vandaan en waartegen richtte het zich? Deze begripshistorische studie toont aan hoe dit verlangen naar natuurlijkheid opereerde binnen een veel breder verband en symptomatisch was voor een maatschappij in verwarring en volle verandering. Door middel van het verlangen naar natuurlijkheid construeerde de burgerlijke cultuur haar eigen identiteit en profileerde deze als een drama van het alledaagse.

"Contrary to what Kant believed about the Dutch (and their visual culture) as "being of an orderly and diligent position" and thus having no feeling for the sublime, this book argues that the sublime played an important role in seventeenth-century Dutch visual culture. By looking at different visualizations of exceptional heights, divine presence, political grandeur, extreme violence, and extraordinary artifacts, the authors demonstrate how viewers were confronted with the sublime, which evoked in them a combination of contrasting feelings of awe and fear, attraction and repulsion. In studying seventeenth-century Dutch visual culture through the lens of notions of the sublime, we can move beyond the traditional and still widespread views on Dutch art as the ultimate representation of everyday life and the expression of a prosperous society in terms of calmness, neatness, and order. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual culture, architectural history, and cultural history".

This scholarly work challenges the traditional perception of Dutch visual culture as solely representative of order and everyday life by exploring the role of the sublime in Dutch art, architecture, and theater. The authors, Stijn Bussels and Bram Van Oostveldt, argue that Dutch art engaged with themes of exceptional heights, divine presence, and political grandeur, evoking feelings of both awe and fear. By examining the sublime's influence on Dutch visual culture, the book provides a nuanced understanding of how art can transcend conventional boundaries and evoke complex emotional responses. It is intended for scholars in art history, visual culture, architectural history, and cultural history, aiming to expand the academic discourse on the sublime in art.
