This book traces the sources and development of Ruskin's aesthetic
and critical theories. In his attempt to skirt the danger of
excessive emotion and association in art, Ruskin's struggle with
the sublime but not the picturesque, is, along with the pathetic
fallacy, examined. These concepts, too, are considered in light of
Ruskin's continuing religious and intellectual development.
Finally, Ruskin's loss of faith is analyzed in relation to the
problem of allegory in art. Ruskin argued for an unchanging
standard of beauty, though the psychological nature of the artist
is related to his art medium. Originally published in 1971. The
Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology
to again make available previously out-of-print books from the
distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These
editions preserve the original texts of these important books while
presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The
goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access
to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books
published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
