Praeterita : Outlines of Scenes and Thoughts Perhaps Worthy of Memory in My Past Life, Hardback Book

Praeterita : Outlines of Scenes and Thoughts Perhaps Worthy of Memory in My Past Life Hardback

Edited by A. O. J. Cockshut

Part of the The Whitehouse Edition of John Ruskin series

Hardback

Description

Praeterita is perhaps the best-loved of all the fruits of Ruskin's many-sided and tormented genius.

This exceptional biography - the first of Ruskin's works in the Whitehouse edition - simultaneously presents a deeply reflective portrait of an early 19th-century Protestant family - its genuine piety, its severities, its suffocating possessive affections - and the product (at once intellectually brilliant and emotionally damaged) of its educational system.
