Annotation: 1903. Pater was an essayist, critic, and Oxford don. Renowned for his study of aesthetic poetry and his essays on the history of the Renaissance, he was a central figure in the Aesthetic movement that swept England at the end of the nineteenth century. Through his essay, Style, his respect for the mot juste, and his belief that good literature will be organically unified, made him a somewhat oblique source for New Criticism-the tradition of close reading. Contents: Style; Wordsworth; Coleridge; Charles Lamb; Sir Thomas Browne; Love's Labours Lost; Measure for Measure; Shakespeare's English Kings; Dante Gabriel Rossetti; Feuillet's La Morte; and Postscript.
