内容説明

William Morris (1834-1896) was a protean figure who exerted a major influence as poet, craftsman, master printer and designer. This volume gives in detail the comments and observations that articulate Morris's problematic political and artistic stands and equally problematic position within the aesthetic movement as it developed in the 1890s. Also voiced are the complexities of his troubled marriage and his devotion to his daughters. However, dominating all these themes, are the Kelmscott Press and the biulding of Morris's library of medieval manuscripts and early printed books. The letters in this volume record the way in which the Press became not only the centre of Morris's aesthetic ambitions and achievements, but also the site for his closest human relations and for much of his connecting with the makers of early modernism. Included as appendices to this volume are two important documents: the first is F.S. Ellis's Valuation List of Morris's library, made after Morris's death; the second is the text of what was to be Morris's final essay on socialism, published in April 1896.

内容説明

The life of William Morris (1834-1896) is revealed in significant new detail by his complete surviving correspondence, brought together here for the first time and including many previously unpublished letters. This collection not only bears witness to Morris's day-to-day activities and friendships, but also reflects his keen response to landscape and architecture, his sense of social responsibility, and his interest in the techniques of the applied arts. Volume I covers Morris's student days at Oxford and marriage to Jane Burden; the first twenty years of Morris and Co.; his success as a poet with the publication of The Earthly Paradise; his two trips to Iceland; the moves to Kelmscott Manor and Kelmscott House; and the start of his socialist career. Originally published in 1984. 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.

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.
