Ruskin as Literary Critic cover

First published in 1928, this book gathers together a selection of John Ruskin's relatively neglected writings on literature and aesthetics. As noted in the textual preface, 'The attention which has been given to Ruskin's other subjects makes the neglect of this branch of his work more striking, for there is here much of permanent value. Interesting themes, original treatment, suggestive ideas which warm and stimulate the mind, are set out in a more easily readable form than is usual in Ruskin's works.' This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Ruskin and literary criticism.
