THE SUBLIME
Husserl gave a series of lectures which were published by Heidegger titled The Phenomenology of the Consciousness of Internal Time. It assumes that like geometry and like rational insight that everyone is in principle capable of his own internal time consciousness.
Both melancholia and the sublime are both connected to the moment in which you will find the least possibility of identifying yourself with the collective.

For an architecture of internal time consciousness, this practice of exercising your own is totally dependent or a tleast connected to your relationship with a collective sense.

Nature and the sublime
Kant posulated that objects in nature cannot be sublime, but only beautiful. The sublime is a concept of the mind, not something found in nature.
