Book Ruskin and the Religion of Beauty  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Ruskin and the Religion of Beauty Classic Reprint written by R. De la Sizeranne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ruskin and the Religion of Beauty These three essays on Ruskin and the Religion of Beauty appeared first in the Revue des Deux Mondes, and were subsequently published in the form of a book which has, I believe, been widely read in France. Perhaps those who already belong to the band of Mr. Ruskin's disciples and admirers, - those who acknowledge the power of his thought in everyday life - will be disappointed to find nothing very new or original in M. De La Sizeranne's picturesque study of the Master, but it will, I hope, be interesting to them as well as to others to note the impression made upon a foreigner by a personage who, not to mention that he is among the greatest of our stylists in prose, has permanently influenced the opinion of the English-speaking people in matters of Art.

Book John Ruskin and the Ethics of Consumption

Download or read book John Ruskin and the Ethics of Consumption written by David Melville Craig and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book on the Victorian critic and public intellectual John Ruskin by a scholar of religion and ethics, this work recovers both Ruskin's engaged critique of economic life and his public practice of moral imagination. With its reading of Ruskin as an innovative contributor to a tradition of ethics concerned with character, culture, and community, this book recasts established interpretations of Ruskin's place in nineteenth-century literature and aesthetics, challenges nostalgic diagnoses of the supposed historical loss of virtue ethics, and demonstrates the limitations of any politics that eschews common purpose as vital to individual agency and social welfare. Although Ruskin's moralistic efforts did not always allow for democratic individuality, equality, and contestation, his eclecticism, Craig argues, helps to correct these problems. Further, Ruskin's interdisciplinary explorations of beauty, work, nature, religion, politics, and economic value reveal the ways in which his insights into the practical connections between aesthetics and ethics, and culture and character, might be applied to today's debates about liberal modernity today. With the triumph of global capitalism, and the near-silence of any opposing voice, Ruskin's model of an engaged reading of culture and his public practice of moral imagination deserve renewed attention. This book provides students in religion, politics, and social theory with a timely reintroduction to this timeless figure.

Book Human Built World

Download or read book Human Built World written by Thomas P. Hughes and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2005-05-13 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most people, technology has been reduced to computers, consumer goods, and military weapons; we speak of "technological progress" in terms of RAM and CD-ROMs and the flatness of our television screens. In Human-Built World, thankfully, Thomas Hughes restores to technology the conceptual richness and depth it deserves by chronicling the ideas about technology expressed by influential Western thinkers who not only understood its multifaceted character but who also explored its creative potential. Hughes draws on an enormous range of literature, art, and architecture to explore what technology has brought to society and culture, and to explain how we might begin to develop an "ecotechnology" that works with, not against, ecological systems. From the "Creator" model of development of the sixteenth century to the "big science" of the 1940s and 1950s to the architecture of Frank Gehry, Hughes nimbly charts the myriad ways that technology has been woven into the social and cultural fabric of different eras and the promises and problems it has offered. Thomas Jefferson, for instance, optimistically hoped that technology could be combined with nature to create an Edenic environment; Lewis Mumford, two centuries later, warned of the increasing mechanization of American life. Such divergent views, Hughes shows, have existed side by side, demonstrating the fundamental idea that "in its variety, technology is full of contradictions, laden with human folly, saved by occasional benign deeds, and rich with unintended consequences." In Human-Built World, he offers the highly engaging history of these contradictions, follies, and consequences, a history that resurrects technology, rightfully, as more than gadgetry; it is in fact no less than an embodiment of human values.

Book The Religion of Ruskin  the Life and Works of John Ruskin

Download or read book The Religion of Ruskin the Life and Works of John Ruskin written by William Burgess and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of Ruskin, the Life and Works of John Ruskin: A Biographical and Anthological Study The method adopted in the following selections is to give the name and number of the volume at the head of the chapter, letting the Author's own paragraph number stand at the beginning of each quotation, and giving the further references at the end. Thus on page 105 of this volume will be found paragraphs on Sensual ity Fatal to Beauty in Art. The numbers 21 and 24 are those Of Ruskin's own paragraphing and this, with Pt. III, Sec. 1, Ch. 14, puts the reader in possession of the full reference, viz.: Modern Painters, Vol. II, Part III, Section 1, Chap ter 14, Paragraphs 21, 24. In some instances, where the quotations are continuous, the references to the chapters, etc., are only given at the end of several, but the numbers of the paragraphs are always given. This is especially notable of Vol. IV, Modern Painters. In still other instances no reference is needed other than the number of the paragraph of the work from which it is taken. It must be understood that the topical headlines are our own and not Ruskin's. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
