Download or read book Ruskin and Modernism written by Giovanni Cianci and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-12-12 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extent of John Ruskin's influence has long been acknowledged, though his impact on the development of Anglo-American modernism has received little systematic attention. In this volume, published to mark the centenary of Ruskin's death, a group of international scholars consider what is often an awkward and conflicted relation. Ruskin's voluminous writings are seen to shelter an incipient modernism whose antipathy to a degraded modernity, powerfully predicts a major current within the work of the new century.
