Appreciations with an Essay on Style by Walter Pater is a collection of essays on various artists and writers of the 19th century. The book includes essays on Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, William Morris, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, among others. Pater's writing style is known for its aestheticism, and the essays in this book reflect that, as he focuses on the beauty and sensuality of the art and literature he discusses. In addition to the essays on individual artists, the book also includes an essay on style itself, in which Pater explores the importance of style in art and literature. Appreciations with an Essay on Style is considered a seminal work of art criticism and a key text in the development of modernist aesthetics.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.
