Description
Written in the lucid intervals between the bouts of dementia that haunted his final years, 'Praeterita' tells the story of John Ruskin's early life: the formation of his taste and intellect through education, travels in Europe, and encounters with great works of art and artists. In abandoning the traditional linear mode of autobiography, Ruskin opened up the form. He also provided a vivid, detailed portrait of pre-Victorian and Victorian England that is an indispensable account of its era.
