Description: John Ruskin by Tim Hilton Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The book begins in 1859, when Ruskin is tutoring Rose La Touche, a girl of ten, with whom he slowly falls in love. Hilton recounts how this relationship developed into one of the saddest love affairs of literary history, ending in tragedy in 1875. Thereafter, says Hilton, Ruskin s life was punctuated by bouts of insanity and despair. Publisher Description This authoritative biography of John Ruskin, the most influential nineteenth-century critic of art and society, is the fruit of almost twenty years of research and the first to return to the original sources. It draws on the complete text of Ruskins diaries and many thousands of unpublished letters and other documents to provide fresh insight into the background and content of Ruskins numerous books. In this fascinating book, Hilton shows how the youthful art critic became a significant didactic writer, developing a unique voice that was to shape his future as the most eloquent and radical of all the great Victorian writers.
