Beschreibung:
John Ruskin (1819-1900), art critic, social reformer, climate warner was one of the greatest writers of English prose; his thought and writings are returning to centre stage. Andrew Hill is Associate Editor and City Editor of the Financial Times, and author of its Lombard column.
Unto this Last, first published in 1860, is possibly the most influential political essay ever written, with a huge impact on British socialism, and on figures such as Tolstoy, Gandhi and Martin Luther King. Its lessons about the supreme value of life are ever more timely, as Andrew Hill of the Financial Times explains in his introduction.
