The Life of John Ruskin, 1860-1900

Volume II

By: Edward Tyas Cook

John Ruskin had a life and career that made the romantic visionary singly the most important cultural figure of his day. His canon attests to the intelligence that championed natural beauty, reveled in art, and erred only on the side of humanity. This is the classic biography by Sir Edward Tyas Cook (1857-1919) of the 19th century author and philosopher, cited and recommended by the Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The principal material on which this biography is founded consists of Ruskin's diaries, notebooks, and letters. They are supplemented by a large collection of letters to his parents. During Ruskin's absences from home, he wrote almost daily, and sometimes more than once a day, to his father, or to his mother, or to both.

His canon attests to the intelligence that championed natural beauty, reveled in art, and erred only on the side of humanity. Sir Edward Tyas Cook (1857-1919) also wrote the Life of John Ruskin, the classic biography cited and recommended by the Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. "My desire has been to discuss not how, but what, Ruskin has written. ... His writings open a vista into a great forest, but there has been some danger of not seeing the forest for the trees.
