Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays and Letters Selected From the Writings of John Ruskin: With Introductory Interpretations and Annotations If it be true that "Literature is a criticism of life," then the writings of John Ruskin deserve to rank high. The papers included in this volume are characteristic expressions of Mr. Ruskin's views on social questions and ethics as applied to all life. His searching examination of conduct and the motives that control the average man in private and public life tend to awaken dissatisfaction with low ideals, and to elevate the standards of personal and social virtue. The main introduction is intended to give briefly (1) Mr. Ruskin's theory of life and art; (2) a sketch of his own life showing what influences contributed to the formation of his character; and (3) the characteristics of his literary style. The special introductions are intended as a concise summary of the individual essays and letters. The text used is that of Mr. Ruskin's authorized English edition. It is hoped that this introduction to one of the most stimulating writers of the present century will prove so helpful and inspiring as to lead to a more intimate acquaintance.

Download or read book Selected Writings written by John Ruskin and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'To be taught to write or to speak - but what is the use of speaking, if you have nothing to say? To be taught to think - nay, what is the use of being able to think, if you have nothing to think of? But to be taught to see is to gain word and thought at once, and both true.' Ruskin was the most powerful and influential critic of the nineteenth century. He wrote about nature, art, architecture, politics, history, myth, and much besides; all his work is characterized by a clarity of vision as unsettling and intense now as it was for his first readers. This new selection draws on the whole range of his astonishingly varied output, from the passionate celebration of J. M. W. Turner's painting in the first volume of Modern Painters (1843) to Praeterita (1885-9), the elegiac autobiography of his later years. The introduction outlines Ruskin's life and thought, and shows why he remains such a rewarding writer today.
