Autorenporträt
W. G. Collingwood, born on August 6, 1854, in Liverpool, and deceased on October 1, 1932, was an esteemed English author, artist, and scholar. Collingwood's multifaceted career encompassed various roles including being John Ruskin's secretary and biographer, as well as an accomplished archaeologist and a talented painter in his own right. A notable work authored by Collingwood is 'The Life of John Ruskin' (1893), which remains one of the seminal biographies detailing the life and work of the prominent Victorian art critic, patron, and thinker. This biography not only illustrates the intricate relationship between Collingwood and Ruskin but also offers profound insights into Ruskin's philosophical and aesthetic influences on the Victorian era. Collingwood's literary style in his biographical work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and evocative narrative, which brings to life the times and contributions of his subjects. His works often reflect a deep-rooted understanding of art and history, which Collingwood drew upon from his extensive travels and his time spent under Ruskin's mentorship. In addition to his literary pursuits, Collingwood's scholarly work embraced Northern English history and culture, expanding the knowledge of Norse and Anglo-Danish literature and art within Britain. His diverse talents and intellectual contributions left a lasting impression on the literary and artistic landscapes of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
