The present book attempts to highlight Ruskins literary criticism and assess his place in the history of literary criticism. Ruskins versatile genius produced works on miscellaneous subjects such as art, architecture, literature, political economy, natural history, morals and ethics, geology, mineralogy, biography, fairy-tales, military tactics, etc., with the result that his literary criticism has been obscured. This book aims to project clearly the image of Ruskin as a literary critic. It not only brings into focus his thoughts on literary problems and individual authors and works but also tries to find out how far his theoretical convictions affect his practical criticism of any author or work.
