The influence of John Ruskin (1819-1900), both on his own time and on artistic and social developments in the twentieth century, cannot be over-stated. He changed Victorian perceptions of art, and was the main influence behind 'Gothic revival' architecture. As a social critic, he argued for the improvement of the condition of the poor, and against the increasing mechanisation of work in factories, which he believed was dull and soul-destroying. The thirty-nine volumes of the Library Edition of his works, published between 1903 and 1912, are themselves a remarkable achievement, in which his books and essays - almost all highly illustrated - are given a biographical and critical context in extended introductory essays and in the 'Minor Ruskiniana' - extracts from letters, articles and reminiscences both by and about Ruskin. This twenty-fifth volume contains Ruskin's writings on birds (Love's Meinie) and flowers (Proserpina).

Excerpt from book: INTRODUCTION TO VOL. XXV This volume is devoted to Buskin's studies of Birds and Flowers. The two books which it contains are I. Love's Meinie, originally published in parts between 1873 and 1881; and II. Proserpina, similarly published between 1875 and 1886. In an appendix to each book, additional matter is now printed from the author's MS. or from proof-sheets. A sketch of Ruskin's life from the point at which we left it in the last Introduction down to his serious illness in 1878 will explain the incomplete character of both of these books. Ruskin reached home after his long sojourn at Venice on June 16, 1877. It had been a busy and not an unhappy time, but some of those who saw him at Venice noticed that he was sadly overtaxing his strength. Fairly well myself, he himself noted in his diary (July 16) soon after his return, but anxious a little about giddiness or dizziness, scarcely perceptible, but not cured since my overwork at Venice; Joanie 'came in evening and all was bright. Quiet hours with Mrs. Arthur Severn were what he liked best, and were best for him. Delicious evening with Joanie, he notes again (December 19), telling each other ghost stories. Another great and characteristic pleasure which awaited him on his return from Italy was the sight of some drawings by Turner, recently acquired for him. While he was still in Switzerland he heard of the forthcoming sale of the Novar Collection. He asked Mr. Arthur Severn to attend it on his behalf, and to buy several of the Turners. Mr. Severn bought accordingly Carnarvon Castle, Bridge of Narni, and Leicester Abbey,1 and Ruskin was well pleased, as he told Mrs. Severn: ? Simplon, Sunday, 10M June, '77. ... I think the getting these new Turners will be of great importance to me. It will set me o...

What is 'style', and how does it relate to thought in language? It has often been treated as something merely linguistic, independent of thought, ornamental; stylishness for its own sake. Or else it has been said to subserve thought, by mimicking, delineating, or heightening ideas that are already expressed in the words. This ambitious and timely book explores a third, more radical possibility in which style operates as a verbal mode of thinking through. Rather than figure thought as primary and pre-verbal, and language as a secondary delivery system, style is conceived here as having the capacity to clarify or generate thinking. The book's generic focus is on non-fiction prose, and it looks across the long nineteenth century. Leading scholars survey twenty authors to show where writers who have gained reputations as either 'stylists' or as 'thinkers' exploit the interplay between 'the what' and 'the how' of their prose. The study demonstrates how celebrated stylists might, after all, have thoughts worth attending to, and that distinguished thinkers might be enriched for us if we paid more due to their style. More than reversing the conventional categories, this innovative volume shows how 'style' and 'thinking' can be approached as a shared concern. At a moment when, especially in nineteenth-century studies, interest in style is re-emerging, this book revaluates some of the most influential figures of that age, re-imagining the possible alliances, interplays, and generative tensions between thinking, thinkers, style, and stylists.

A cultural history of a reddish, much-loved shrub, sometimes called mountain ash or dogberry. Rowan is the first in-depth natural and cultural history of this much-loved plant sometimes called mountain ash or dogberry. Through myth, medicine, literature, land art, and contemporary rewilding, Oliver Southall uncovers the many meanings of this singular reddish, fruit shrub: a potent symbol of nostalgia on the one hand and of environmental activism on the other. Taking the reader on an eclectic journey across history, Rowan charts our changing relationships with nature and landscape, raising urgent questions about how we value and relate to the non-human world.
