Reviews

Scholars have long been aware of the importance of acknowledging Pater's debt to Hegelian philosophy. And many critics of Pater have performed almost obligatory nods towards Hegel's influence, conceptualized in vague terms, without formulating an understanding of its precise forms. Such critics will now have to engage seriously with Aestheticism and the Philosophy of Death, which contains the most scholarly and detailed account of Pater's Hegelianism to date. -- Stefano Evangelista Modern Language Review 106.4, 2011, 1133-34 In this meticulously researched monograph Giles Whiteley sets himself the expansive task of reading Pater's entire intellectual project as an extended conversation with Hegel... the case is well made that Pater should be considered a proto-poststructuralist thinker. -- unsigned notice Forum for Modern Language Studies 48.3, June 2012, 361
