Key Features:
- Boldly reassesses Pater''s intellectual significance, arguing that he self-consciously poised on the cusp between late-Victorian Romanticism and Modernism
- Imaginatively combines close readings with cultural and intellectual history and biography to reconsider individualism and philosophical thought in the Aesthetic ''Movement''
- Provides the most substantial scholarly engagement with Pater''s unpublished manuscripts (held at the Houghton Library, Harvard University)
