Abstract

The contribution explores some of the questions raised by the analogy between Pater’s thought and late-nineteenth century economic thinking. By reassessing the affinities between Pater's idea of value and the redefinition of this concept offered by William Stanley Jevons, the essay aims to shed new light on Pater’s view of (inter)subjectivity, pleasure, and consumerism.
