Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections, Moral and Religious, From the Works of John Ruskin The latter half of the last century is noteworthy for the presence of two men in England who attracted attention by the forcefulness of their ethical message to their countrymen and to the world. As we all know they were Thomas Carlyle and John Ruskin. Like the utterances of all prophets their messages provoked vigorous criticism, but were too truthful to be treated with indifference or ignored. Neither of these writers undertook to publish a system of ethics but called attention to the existence of social and economic evils which, in popular estimation, had come to be regarded as inherent in the organization of English life. It was this practical character of their teaching, especially that of Ruskin, that has given to their work such a vital significance, - a significance that is manifesting itself in the changes occurring to-day in the social and economic life of England. The early life of Ruskin did not seem favorable to the career of an ethical teacher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
