Abstract
In Walter Pater's seminal essay "The School of Giorgione" (1877), he formulated for the first and only time, a theory of art and aesthetic experience complete with its own title, observation and uses and which was modelled less on music than on its metaphor. In this article, I examine Pater's theory of "Anders-streben" in relation to the concept of synaesthesia and as a context for understanding the role, function and rhetorical style of "aesthetic criticism." For this was Pater's art and thus, certainly not exempt from the paradigm he formulated in "Giorgione."
期刊介绍:
Les Cahiers victoriens et édouardiens publient depuis 1974 deux numéros par an, l’un sur des sujets et écrivains variés, l’autre consacré à un auteur ou à un thème. Les Cahiers s’intéressent non seulement à la littérature, mais aussi à tous les aspects de la civilisation de l’époque, et accueillent des méthodes critiques variées. Ils publient aussi des comptes rendus d’ouvrages et des résumés de thèses récemment soutenues sur le sujet. Des articles peuvent être soumis en vue d’une publication éventuelle (règles de présentation du M.L.A. Handbook).
