Ruskin and Gender

More about the book

The essays provide a fresh examination of Ruskin's views on gender, challenging the perception of him as merely a conservative figure in Victorian society. By reinterpreting his work, particularly "On Queens' Gardens," the collection reveals a more nuanced understanding of his contributions to gender discussions, highlighting their relevance both in the Victorian era and contemporary debates. This revaluation opens up new perspectives on the complexities of gender roles and the historical context surrounding them.
