Felicity Nanda Jarosz is a trilingual research student specializing in the philosophy of literature and the sublime. She is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Sydney, where her thesis examines Immanuel Kant's theory of subjectivity realized through his works on the sublime, and how this compares to the subject under the sign of the sublime in European Romantic literature. Previously, Jarosz earned a Master's degree from Université de la Sorbonne Paris IV, where she wrote theses on representations of madness and the sublime in French, English, and Polish literature. She is fluent in English, Polish, and French, and speaks German at the B2 level.

Thesis Title: The Kantian Sublime in European Romantic Literature
Supervisors: Dr. Dalia Nassar and Dr. Cat Moir
Brief Synopsis of Research:
The sublime is a concept that bridges the divide between philosophical aesthetics and literary practice.
Whether in reference to an experience of rhetorical transcendence (Dennis, 1704) or as an example of the
magnificence of the deity (Ballie, 1747), the evocation of the sublime has incessantly begged the question
of its own significance. I am interested in the contradistinction between Immanuel Kant’s theory of
subjectivity as realised through his works on the sublime and the realisation of the subject under the sign of
the sublime (de Bolla, 1989). Philosophers (Crowther, 1991) have shown how Kant’s theory of the sublime
is key to understanding his universalist aesthetics. Meanwhile, critical theorists have documented the mass
production of British aesthetic theories surrounding the sublime during the 18th century (Ashfield &
de Bolla, 1996). However, there has not not been a comparative study of the Kantian subject which
experiences the sublime and the subject of sublime theory.
Research Interests:
My current research centres around the application of aesthetic theories to the philosophy of literature,
specifically the theory of the sublime.

Discussion upon the sublime. Transposing the aesthetic concepts obtained from
a physical relationship with nature into an indoor space; namely that of the
image and text. In doing so, I will be attempting to gather a greater
understanding of the epistemology of existence and how this can be conveyed
through writing.
