The Cambridge Companion to John Ruskin Edited by Francis O’Gorman Frontmatter More Information Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-05489-9 - The Cambridge Companion to John Ruskin Edited by Francis O’gorman Frontmatter More information the cambridge companion to john ruskin John Ruskin (1819–1900), one of the leading literary, aesthetic, and intellectual figures of the middle and late Victorian period, and a significant influence on writers from Tolstoy to Proust, has established his claim as a major writer of English prose. This collection of essays brings together leading experts from a wide range of disciplines to analyse his ideas in the context of his life and work. Topics include Ruskin’s Europe, architecture, technology, autobiography, art, gender, and his rich influence even in the contemporary world. This is the first multi-authored expert collection to assess the totality of Ruskin’s achievement and to open up the deep coherence of a troubled but dazzling mind. A chronol- ogy and guide to further reading contribute to the usefulness of the volume for students and scholars. francis o’gorman is a professor in the School of English at the University of Leeds and the author of Worrying: A Literary and Cultural History (2015). His other recent publications include editions of Elizabeth Gaskell’s Sylvia’s Lovers (2014), Anthony Trollope’s Framley Parsonage (co-edited with Katherine Mullin, 2014), and Ruskin’s Praeterita (2012), as well as The Cambridge Companion to Victorian Culture (2010).

It is a rich landscape, with complex Scottish rock left an impression on me. My curiosity encouraged me in later movements of water and a striking variety of rock formations, plants and years to return to the Trossachs and Brig o’Turk. The house where Ruskin had trees. It is here that the critic John Ruskin and John Everett Millais, the stayed - the school master’s cottage - was still to be seen, but the location celebrated founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, spent several of the painting was, apparently, long since lost.

Putin was One, Ksenia, who lives in Minsk in Belarus, told me then the ex-President and current Prime Minister that she read Ruskin’s Crown of Wild Olive at school. She seeking re-election and utilising the Orthodox Church is now a student of Arabic, and has opened to me some for his own political propaganda. One can only imagine sources of interest in Ruskin in the Arab world. There what scorn Ruskin would have poured on that. And on are a surprising number of translations of Ruskin in Putin’s successful re-election as President!

    Cambridge University Press 0521574145 - Ruskin’s God Michael Wheeler Frontmatter More information Michael Wheeler challenges critical orthodoxy by arguing that John Ruskin’s writing is underpinned by a sustained trust in divine wisdom, a trust nurtured by his imaginative engagement with King Solomon and the temple in Jerusalem, and with the wisdom litera- ture of the Old Testament. In Modern Painters, The Seven Lamps of Architecture and The Stones of Venice, belief in the wisdom of God the Father informed Ruskin’s Evangelical natural theology and his celebration of Turner’s land- scape painting, while the wisdom of God the Son lay at the heart of his Christian aesthetics. Whereas ‘the author of Modern Painters’ sought to teach his readers how to see architecture, paintings and landscapes, the ‘Victorian Solomon’ whose religious life was trou- bled, and who created various forms of modern wisdom literature in works such as Unto this Last, The Queen of the Air and Fors Clavigera, wished to teach them how to live. Michael Wheeler is Director of Chawton House Library, Hampshire, and Professor of English Literature at the University of Southampton. While writing this book he was Professor of English Literature, and Director of the Ruskin Programme and Ruskin Collection Project, Lancaster University. His main publica- tions include The Art of Allusion in Victorian Fiction (1979), English Fiction of the Victorian Period, 1830–1890 (1985), Death and the Future Life in Victorian Literature and Theology (1990; winner of the Conference on Christianity and Literature Award, USA, 1991–2); and its paper- back abridgement Heaven, Hell and the Victorians (1994).

    The Companion The Newsletter of The Guild of St George Number 11 (2011) www.guildofstgeorge.org.uk A Letter from the Master ear fellow Companions, Your copy of The Companion is arriving a little earlier this year. We are trying to get back to the original Dplan of sending it out six months before the papers for the AGM. But there is a lot going on and I hope you will find it as full as last year’s issue. One thing you were promised, alas, is not happening – or not happening this year. Stephen Wildman and I had planned to follow up last year’s economic symposium in London with a second event to be called ‘Who Pays for the Environment?’ But as some of you know, I had a major accident in December – I slipped on the ice and broke my hip – and that made it difficult for me to pursue all my plans. We have therefore decided to postpone the second symposium and are hoping to hold it on 11th February – exactly two years after the last one. Ruskin and his ideas were very much in the news at the time of the first symposium. Articles by Andrew Hill in the Financial Times and Jonathan Glancey in the Guardian had drawn attention to the contemporary relevance of his social and economic concerns, as had Bernard Richards on More4 News. This year he has more than once come up, in, for instance, Simon Jenkins’s Guardian column, but I have been more struck by his extensive presence as an artist.

  • Letters to Ruskin
    Letters to John Ruskin: Our University Members in Conversation with the Great Man John Ruskin, whose name this university bears, was born two hundred years ago on 8th February 1819. The first of the events that we held as part of our Ruskin bicentenary celebrations was an informal roundtable organised by Elizabeth Ludlow and Nigel Cooper. For a summary of the event, please see this piece that Hannah Cox has written in our student newspaper The Ruskin Journal. The event involved several members of our university community expressing their reactions to Ruskin by reading out letters addressed to him. In writing these letters, it was our hope that those not familiar with Ruskin would begin engaging with him and learning from him. The idea of writing letters to Ruskin came from Zoë Bennett’s and Christopher Rowland’s 2016 book, In a Glass Darkly: The Bible, Reflection and Everyday Life, where Ruskin is discussed as a ‘companion on the road’ and is brought into dialogue as an interlucutor who provides ‘analogies for the critical understanding of the Bible and life in our own time’ (128). We were fortunate enough to have Zoë and Christopher contribute to the roundtable by discussing their imaginative engagement with Ruskin and, in Christopher’s case, reading out the letter that he wrote to him. Following Christopher’s letter, we each read out our letters in turn; these are printed below in the following order: Elizabeth Ludlow 2 Nigel Cooper 4 Hilary Bedder 6 Edwin Marr 8 Chris Owen 10 If you would like to read the texts that we refer to, then please note that The Library Edition of the Works of John Ruskin (1903-1912, eds.

  • Decorative Art in the Museum and the Novel, 1850-1880. Jacqueline Yauop January 2006
    Narrative Objects: Decorative Art in the Museum and the Novel, 1850-1880. Jacqueline YaUop Submitted for the degree of PhD, Centre for Nineteenth-Century Studies, Department of English Literature. January 2006. Abstract: In the face of financial disaster, Dr Lydgate attempts to share his concerns with his wife, Rosamund, in George Eliot's Middlemarch (1871). Rosamund's refusal to engage with the crisis, or to sympathise with her husband's despair, is repeatedly presented by Eliot as a preoccupation with inanimate, decorative objects: Rosamund 'turned her neck and looked at a vase on the mantelpiece'. 1 The mid- nineteenth-century novel increasingly explores what it means to own, collect and display objects, and how personal and public lives can be constructed and defined by 'things'. Recent critical discussion has examined the significance of the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, and the subsequent international exhibitions, as a catalyst for, and an expression of, new ways of producing and consuming objects. 2 These dazzling exhibitions, in conjunction with the foundation of the South Kensington Museum (1857), began to formulate principles of design and models of taste for the public. Increasingly influential, however, was the development of the smaller, regional museum collections of decorative objects which began to emerge in the second half of the nineteenth century. Most of these shared with their national counterparts an intention to educate the public; almost all retained 1 George Eliot, Middlemarch, ed. by David Carroll (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998), p. 612. 2 See, for example, Jeffrey A. Auerbach, The Great Exhibition: A Nation on Display (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1999) and Andrew Miller, Novels Behind Glass: Commodity Culture and Victorian Narrative (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1995).
