John Ruskin died in Brantwood, Coniston, Lancashire, England on this day in 1900 (aged 80).
"In great states, children are always trying to remain children, and the parents wanting to make men and women of them. In vile states, the children are always wanting to be men and women, and the parents to keep them children."
--from "Mornings in Florence" (1875)

As a memoir elevated to the level of fine art, John Ruskin’s Praeterita stands alongside The Education of Henry Adams and the confessions of Augustine, Rousseau, and Tolstoy. A luminous account of his childhood and youth, Praeterita is the last major work of the revolutionary nineteenth-century critic. Written in the lucid intervals between the bouts of dementia that haunted his final years, Praeterita tells the story of 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 and was an important influence on Proust. He also provided a vivid, detailed portrait of pre-Victorian and Victorian England that is as indispensable an account of its era as Samuel Pepys’s diary is of England in the seventeenth century. This edition of Praeterita is accompanied by Dilecta, Ruskin’s own selection from his letters, diaries, and other writings. In these more private writings we get a fascinating glimpse of genius as it flickers in and out of madness. Together these two works illuminate the life and mind of a towering intellect who left an extraordinary mark on the history of aesthetics and culture, and on the very course of autobiography. With a new Introduction by Tim Hilton
John Ruskin—art critic, social commentator, poet and architect—died on this day in 1900. He sought to increase museum access and art education amongst the working class, and is often credited with inspiring the creation of the National Trust

150年前，英國讀書人幾乎人手一冊的 John Ruskin 的作品。
現在，很少人讀了。
所以，我欣賞的一位藝術史家在二十年前要編 {Ruskin Today 簡易本}。
不過，中文界似乎從頭來；去年，翻譯他的名著 "現代諸畫家"等等。
我今天無意中了解去年兩岸各有一本關於"建築的七盞明燈"的書
大陸翻譯原著
台灣的簡介
兩本在網路上都可以找到
簡介
不過翻譯本很少注解 這幾乎使原書難真正了解
我想或許讀者應該快速先了解作者的美學價值觀 道德觀
我建議讀第176-77頁 作者認為為什麼古建築物為文明(包括後代)所共有
由不得我們破壞
在當時英國中部也快速工業化
唯一能給人民安謂的是這些先人遺澤
我對於196頁將 magister lapicida 翻譯成建築大師不解 因為它的字面意市"割石匠"

建筑的诗意作者约翰·罗斯金努力尝试去阐释那些被忽视的原则：精神气质的—致性、优雅的基础和美感的本质。他将带领读者考察各国建筑如何受到它们气质和风俗的影响，与周围景物的联系，处于什么样的天空之下。读者会看到街市和农舍，也会看到庙堂和高塔，会更关注那些被精神气质所支配的建筑，而不是被规则所约束和纠正的建筑。

60. So much for the hill dwellings of our own country. I think the examination of the five examples of the cottage which I have given have furnished all the general principles which are important or worthy of consideration; and I shall therefore devote no more time to the contemplation of individual buildings. But, before I leave the cottage altogether, it will be necessary to notice a part of the building which I have in the separate instances purposely avoided mentioning, that I might have the advantage of immediate comparison; a part exceedingly important, and which seems to have been essential to the palace as well as to the cottage, ever since the time when Perdiccas received his significant gift of the sun from his Macedonian master, [Greek: perigrapsas ton hêlion, hos ên kata tên kapnodokên es ton oikon esechôn].[12] And then I shall conclude the subject by a few general remarks on modern ornamental cottages, illustrative of the principle so admirably developed in the beauty of the Westmoreland building; to which, it must be remembered, the palm was assigned, in preference to the Switzer's; not because it was more labored, but because it was more natural. OXFORD, _Jan., 1838._ [Footnote 12: Herodotus viii, 137, freely quoted from memory. The story was that three brothers took service with a kinglet in Macedonia. The queen, who cooked their food herself, for it was in the good old times, noticed that the portion of Perdiccas, the youngest, always "rose" three times as large as any other. The king judged this to be an omen of the lad's coming to fortune; and dismissed them. They demanded their wages. "When the king heard talk about wages--you must know _the sun was shining into the house, down the chimney_--he said (for God had hardened his heart) 'There's your wage; all you deserve and all you'll get:' and pointed to the sunshine. The elder brothers were dumfoundered when they heard that; but the lad, who happened to have his knife with him, said, 'We accept, King, the gift.' With his knife he _made a scratch around the sunstreak_ on the floor, took the shine of it three times into the fold of his kirtle"--his pocket, we should say nowadays--"and went his way." Eventually he became king of Macedonia, and ancestor of Alexander the Great.]
