• Matthew Kaiser's article, "Pater's Mouth," (Victorian Literature and Culture 39.1) has been awarded the North American Victorian Studies Association (NAVSA) Donald Gray Prize for the best essay published in the field of Victorian Studies in 2011. The international, interdisciplinary panel of judges commented: "First place in a strong and varied field goes to Matthew Kaiser’s sophisticated essay on Pater and taste – taste in the physical rather than the aesthetic sense. Drawing on eight Pater texts in a rich and lyrical essay, Kaiser’s informative references to art, classics, history, philosophy, philology, poetry, physiology, gastronomy, and Eucharistic imagery produce an exceptionally fine close reading and provocative argument."
