Description

Walter Pater's Imaginary Portraits offers a unique glimpse into his lesser-known short fiction. This collection brings together four intricate narratives published in 1887, alongside five other stories that were previously only available in periodical form. Fully annotated and supplemented by valuable contextual materials, this edition makes accessible these extraordinary and impressive tales for the first time. With its rich historical context and detailed annotations, this book provides a fascinating insight into Pater's writing style and literary legacy. A valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century literature, Walter Pater's Imaginary Portraits is a must-have for scholars and readers alike.
