Autorenporträt
John Ruskin (1819-1900) was a prominent Victorian-era English art critic, social thinker, poet, and artist. His broad range of talents and interests spanned across various domains, but he is particularly remembered for his writings on art, architecture, and social issues. Ruskin's literary style is distinguished by its eloquence, passion, and concern for morality and social justice. His works are often characterized by their detailed observation and the synthesis of beauty and ethics. 'Hortus Inclusus' manifests Ruskin's keen observation and love for the natural world, exploring themes of nature, art, and society within a collection of his correspondence that illuminates his personal reflections and theories. This book, alongside other notable works such as 'Modern Painters' (1843), 'The Stones of Venice' (1851-1853), and 'Unto This Last' (1860), showcases Ruskin's profound influence on Victorian taste and opinion. Ruskin was not only an author but also an educator, founding the Ruskin School of Drawing at Oxford University, demonstrating his commitment to the arts and education. His legacy includes influencing the Arts and Crafts Movement and contributing significantly to social and economic theory.
