Autorenporträt
John Ruskin (1819-1900) is lauded as one of the most multifaceted and influential thinkers of the Victorian era. Trained as an art critic, his interests spanned across a vast range of subjects, including art, architecture, literature, and social theory. Ruskin's eloquent writings advocate for a harmonious blend of beauty and morality, an ethos that permeated his critiques and theories. His formidable body of work includes 'Modern Painters', a series that cemented his stature as an art critic, and 'The Stones of Venice', which examines Venetian architecture while also expounding on broader socio-political issues. In 'The Pleasures of England' lectures, Ruskin explores the cultural and spiritual values of England, meditating on the nation's art and architecture as reflections of its societal health. His literary style, characterized by rich descriptions and moralistic undertones, sought to remind society of the connections between art, nature, and human virtue. Ruskin's influence extended into social reform, inspiring movements like arts and crafts, and his writings continue to resonate, informing studies in aesthetics and the philosophy of art.
