The World of Romance

The book showcases the early work of William Morris, a significant figure in both textile design and Romantic literature. Born in 1834, Morris's influence extended to the decoration of churches and homes in the early 20th century. He is recognized as a pioneer of the modern fantasy genre, impacting writers like J.R.R. Tolkien. This edition includes a new introductory biography and aims to present his classic works—spanning fiction, poetry, and essays—in accessible, high-quality formats, preserving the original text and artwork.
