Recenzii

' Victorian Aesthetic Conditions does more than bring together some of today's top scholars in Pater studies. By conceiving of Walter Pater as a fulcrum for hybridic conceptions of art, aesthetics, and culture, the interwoven chapters present Pater and Victorian society in ways we've never seen before. This insightful, vibrant collection is destined to become required reading for all of us working in the field.' - Dennis Denisoff, Chair, Department of English Member, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada
