內容簡介: |
"For the lover of Venice...but above all for the lover of fine
writing."J. G. Links. John Ruskin, Victorian England''s greatest
writer on art and literature, believed himself an adopted son of
Venice, and his feelings for this city are exquisitely expressed in
The Stones of Venice . This edition contains Ruskin''s famous essay
"The Nature of Gothic," a marvelously descriptive tour of Venice
before its postwar restoration. As Ruskin wrote in 1851, "Thank God
I am here, it is a Paradise of Cities."
