"_Mr. Pater's Studies in the history of the Renaissance,
constitute the most remarkable example of this younger
movement towards a fresh and inner criticism, and they
are in themselves a singular and interesting addition to
literature. The subjects are of the very kind in which
we need instruction and guidance, and there is a moral
in the very choice of them. From the point of view of
form and literary composition they are striking in the
highest degree. They introduce to English readers a new
and distinguished master in the great and difficult art
of writing prose. Their style is marked by a flavour
at once full and exquisite, by a quality that mixes
richness with delicacy and a firm coherency with infinite
subtlety._"--FORTNIGHTLY REVIEW.
