Description and Table of Contents
Description
This six-volume set examines the relationship between aesthetics and religion in 19th-century Britain. This subject has long been of interest to students of Victorian and Romantic thought. Until now John Ruskin was the writer most frequently cited by contemporary critics in connection with this topic. This collection aims to draw attention to the intellectual hinterland of Ruskinian aesthetics; writers who were his contemporaries and were responding to the same intellectual and social trends. The material gathered here seeks to illustrate the diversity of texts which explore the connection between aesthetics and religion and to show how the movement often labelled "Ruskinian" was in fact more widely spread than modern critics have often realized. Containing book-length works and articles by such diverse writers as John Keble, A. Welby Pugin and Anna Jameson, this resource should be of interest to scholars of Victorian Studies, aesthetics and religious studies.
