Book Lady Trevelyan and the Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood

Download or read book Lady Trevelyan and the Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood written by John Batchelor and published by Random House. This book was released on 2011-12-31 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining account of an extraordinary cultural and historical event: - the establishment by one highly intelligent woman of a salon of the arts in a beautiful country house in Northumberland. Wallington Hall was remote from the major centres of artistic activity, such as London and Edinburgh. Yet Pauline Trevelyan single handedly made it the focus of High Victorian cultural life. Among those she attracted into her orbit were Ruskin, Swinburne, the Brownings, the Rossettis (Dante Gabriel, Christina and William Michael), Carlyle, and Millais and other members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. The penniless but clever daughter of a clergyman, Pauline Jermyn married an older man whom she met through a shared passion for geology. Sir Walter Trevelyan was a philanthropist, teetotal, vegetarian, pacificist ... and very rich. With his encouragement, she collected works of art and decorated Wallington Hall with a cycle of vast paintings on the history of Northumberland. She was a patron of the arts who provided a fostering environment for many of the geniuses of her day. After her death, Swinburne wept every time her name was mentioned.

Book A C  Swinburne and the Singing Word

Download or read book A C Swinburne and the Singing Word written by Yisrael Levin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on Algernon Charles Swinburne's later writings, this collection makes a case for the seriousness and significance of the writer's mature work. While Swinburne's scandalous early poetry has received considerable critical attention, the thoughtful, rich, spiritually and politically informed poetry that began to emerge in his thirties has been generally neglected. This volume addresses the need for a fuller understanding of Swinburne's career that includes his fiction, aesthetic ideology, and analyses of Shakespeare and the great French writers. Among the key features of the collection is the contextualizing of Swinburne's work in new contexts such as Victorian mythography, continental aestheticism, positivism, and empiricism. Individual essays examine, among other topics, the dialect poems and Swinburne's position as a regional poet, Swinburne as a transition figure from nineteenth-century aesthetic writing to the professionalized criticism that dominates the twentieth century, Swinburne's participation in the French literary scene, Swinburne's friendships with women writers, and the selections made for anthologies from the nineteenth century to the present. Taken together, the essays offer scholars a richer portrait of Swinburne's importance as a poet, critic, and fiction writer.

Book John Ruskin and the Victorian Woman Writer

Download or read book John Ruskin and the Victorian Woman Writer written by Anne Longmuir and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Ruskin and the Victorian Woman Writer addresses the little-considered personal and literary relationships of John Ruskin and four major Victorian women writers: Elizabeth Barrett Browning, George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Christina Rossetti. Drawing on new archival, primary research, the book provides detailed biographical contexts for each of these relationships before considering the interplay of each woman’s writing with Ruskin’s. Focusing on literature, art, economics, and gender, it offers close readings of a selection of each woman’s oeuvre alongside Ruskin’s prose to demonstrate the affinities and the moments of disagreement between Ruskin and these writers. Though primarily aimed at an academic audience, the book will also be of interest to general readers with a developed interest in nineteenth-century culture. It advances readers’ understandings of the complex web of influence that existed between Ruskin and women writers in the 1850s and 1860s, establishing the opportunities that Ruskin’s art theory offered women writers engaged with social questions and the apparent influence of these writers on Ruskin’s own emerging political economy. By analysing women writers’ responses to Ruskin’s work—and his response to theirs—this book complicates and challenges assumptions about Ruskin’s supposedly troubled relationship with women.

Book Master Drawings by John Ruskin

Download or read book Master Drawings by John Ruskin written by Paul H. Walton and published by London : Pilkington Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The drawings selected in this book from a distinguished private collection reveal new facets of a drawing activity that was clearly much more than a research tool. They provide a cross section of works requiring attention as expressions of a remarkable artistic talent offering many parallels with the freedom and individuality of the twentieth century. But Ruskin's drawing cannot be considered simply as the produce of a keen eye and highly developed aesthetic sense. His mind was always engaged as he drew and it is an important aim of this book to trace the memories, theories, passions and convictions associated with the subjects he chose to depict." --Book Jacket.
