    THE TJHIVBRSITT OP OKLAHOM GRADUATE COLLEGE THE PRE-RAPHAELITES AHD THEIR CRITICS: A TENTATIVE APPROACH TOWARD THE AESTHETIC OP PRE-RAPHAELITISM A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OP PHILOSOPHY BY WILLIAM EVAN PREDEMAN Norman, Oklahoma _________ l â 5 6 __________ THE PEE-EAPHABLITBS AND THEIR CRITICS A TENTATIVE APPROACH TOWARD THE AESTHETIC OP PRE-RAPHAELITISM APPROVED BT Æ", ~hi. I DISSERTATION COMMITTEE PEBPAOE The purpose of this study is to exsimine the view­ points of a sufficient number of critics of the Pre- Eaphaelite Movement to arrive at a tentative definition and to place the movement in its proper historical per­ spective. The primary emphasis will be literary. But since ,the Pre-Raphaelite Movement began as a movement in painting and so expanded in its later phase that its influence spread to furniture making, interior decoration, tapestry and wall paper design, and book making and illustration, a completely literary study of the movement would be as inadequate as one dealing solely with the painting. Numerous studies have been made of the indi­ vidual Pre-Raphaelites and of the movement in general. Most of these, however, are devoted to relating biographi­ cal facts and to tracing the history of the movement. Critical studies of the aesthetic underlying the movement and motivating the individual members are few in number. Although Pre-Eaphaelitism is well documented, no universal agreement concerning the historical facts of the movement exists. Por this reason, the first part of the study is essentially historical, tracing the successive Phases through which Pre-Ranhaelitism progressed.

    THOMAS FARRER AND THE PRE-RAPHAELITE MOVEMENT IN AMERICA by Lawrence B. Siddall The Pre-Raphaelite movement in American art was brief, lasting only ten years from about 1857 to1867. It appeared quickly on the horizon and then virtually vanished. In that short time, however, the movement made a significant impact. Yet little is known about it today. “It is a largely forgotten chapter in American Art”.1 What most defined this movement was the desire to revolutionize art in America and establish an aesthetic that was based on the principle of truth in nature as found in the writings of John Ruskin, the mid-19th century British critic, writer and artist. Ruskin wrote: “The word truth, as applied to art, signifies the faithful statement, either to the mind or senses, of any fact of nature.”2 While some of the artists associated with this movement called themselves Realists or Naturalists, most preferred the term Pre-Raphaelite because they saw their cause as similar to that of the Pre-Raphaelite artists in England who also wanted to change the course of art, in their case rejecting the traditional and rigid standards of the Royal Academy. The British artists, too, had been strongly influenced by the writings of Ruskin and took the name Pre-Raphaelite because they believed that true art existed only in Italian painting prior to Raphael. One difference between the British and American movements was the fact that the British artists had a preference for figural painting, whereas the Americans focused more on landscape, still-life and what was called the nature study (as distinct from a sketch).
