After Ruskin is the first book to explore the social and political
influence of the leading Victorian art and social critic, John
Ruskin (1819-1900). It explains how he inspired a range of
individuals to reform Britain's social and political culture in the
period between 1870 and 1920. These individuals operated in a
number of key institutions and organisations: Ruskin's Guild of St.
George, societies formed in Ruskin's name, the university
settlements, and in Parliament, particularly in the Labour Party.
Stuart Eagles helps to explain how these institutions developed,
who guided them, and their motivation, as much as it explains the
nature and extent of Ruskin's legacies. An original analysis based
on extensive archival research, this is the first comprehensive
survey of the intellectual influence of one of Victorian Britain's
greatest critics.
