Autorenporträt
John Ruskin (1819–1900) was a prominent Victorian era English critic, thinker, and artist, renowned for his work in social and economic theory, as well as his contributions to literature and art criticism. He was an advocate for the values of craftsmanship and the aesthetics of the natural world, which influenced the Arts and Crafts Movement. Ruskin's multidisciplinary approach extended to education, and he founded the Drawing School at Oxford in 1871. His influential essays on political economy, 'Unto This Last, and Other Essays on Political Economy' (1862), argued for the importance of moral values in economic practices, challenging the principles of laissez-faire capitalism prevalent at the time and advocating for the welfare of workers, a precursor to modern social welfare ideologies. His literary style blended didacticism with eloquent prose that appealed widely to the Victorian readership. Ruskin's works were a synthesis of art, social critique, and moral philosophy, bridging the gap between aesthetic sensibilities and ethical considerations. He was also notable for his patronage of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and his cultural commentaries, which made significant contributions to Victorian art and design philosophy.
