Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from William Morris: An Address Delivered the 11th November 1900 at Kelmscott House, Hammersmith, Before the Hammersmith Socialist Society Twenty-One Years Ago in this room, then filled with looms, William Morris began the manufacture of his famous Hammersmith carpets. For many years thereafter it was in regular use for Socialist meetings, and chiefly if not exclusively at last for those of the Hammersmith Socialist Society. This Society, the last of those founded or joined by Morris, represents in a sense the success and failure of his life. It certainly represents the subject which in those later years engrossed his mind and lay nearest to his heart. When, therefore, Mrs. Cobden-Sanderson, one of the friends for whom Morris had a very special affection, asked me to open, in this historic room, this winter´s course of meetings of the Hammersmith Socialist Society - the first after long disuse - with an address on the founder of the Society, and the former master of the house, the invitation was one which I could not well decline on the ground I have given elsewhere, that what I have to say about Morris I have already said in the published record of his life. I do not propose, however, now to go beyond or vary from that record, or to diverge into general criticism. What we think of great men matters very much to ourselves individually.
