Bog beskrivelse
Walter Pater and Persons investigates the vital concept of the Person in the work of Walter Pater, a major influence on late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century literature. Stephen Cheeke explores the intersections of the person, persona, and personality in Pater''s work; re-examines arguments about his famously personal prose style; traces Pater''s ambivalent fascination with impersonality and asceticism; considers the poetics of personification in his writings about Greek myth and religion, in the divine logos of early Christianity, and in the theory of Platonic Universals; and explores his fascination with metempsychosis (the many persons through whom the individual soul transmigrates). Cheeke also explores the networks in which Pater was interpreted and misinterpreted by different persons and personalities, such as Oscar Wilde, Arthur Symons, and W.B Yeats. Their (mis)readings of Pater, and rebellions against his work from Decadent, antinomian, and ''mystical'' perspectives, reveal the ways in which Pater''s writing had always been in a critical dialogue with its own thinking, as well as a prescient one in relation to his reception. The philosophical question of ''what is a person?''--a crucial one for the nineteenth century, and with an increasing urgency in our own times--is illuminated throughout this work.
