Exploring the intricacy and complexity of Walter Pater's prose,
Transfigured World challenges traditional approaches to Pater and
shows precise ways in which the form of his prose expresses its
content. Carolyn Williams asserts that Pater's aestheticism and his
historicism should be understood as dialectically interrelated
critical strategies, inextricable from each other in practice.
Williams discusses the explicit and embedded narratives that play a
crucial role in Pater's aesthetic criticism and examines the
figures that compose these narratives, including rhetorical tropes,
structures of argument such as genealogy, and historical or
fictional personae.
