This book which he started to pen in 1998, an autobiography was unfinished when he died and was his last major work, was written during periods of lucidity from the dementia which finally enveloped him completely until his death in 1901. It is written in the most luminous style which even the nineteenth century, that great age of English prose, can show. Praeterita is an account of childhood, boyhood and youth. It tells the story of Ruskin's early years, describing the formation of his taste and intellect through education, travels in Europe, and encounters with great works of art and artists - most famously his father's friend, J.M.W. Turner. All these experiences are set in the context of domestic life in pre-Victorian England . We have other titles by this author, please contact us direct for further details.
