Inhaltsangabe

The Two Paths is a philosophical work written by renowned English writer and art critic, John Ruskin. In this book, Ruskin examines two distinct paths that individuals can take in life ������� the path of duty and the path of pleasure. He argues that the path of duty, which involves self-discipline, hard work, and a commitment to moral values, is the only path that leads to true happiness and fulfillment.Ruskin uses a range of examples from literature, art, and history to illustrate his points, and he also draws on his own experiences and observations. He discusses the importance of education, the role of religion in society, and the relationship between art and morality.The Two Paths was originally delivered as a series of lectures in 1858 and was later published in book form. It has since become a classic work of Victorian literature and is still widely read and studied today. The book's themes of morality, duty, and self-discipline continue to resonate with readers, and its insights into human nature and the pursuit of happiness remain relevant.Portable art--independent of all place--is for the most part ignoble art. Your little Dutch landscape, which you put over your sideboard to-day, and between the windows tomorrow, is a far more contemptible piece of work than the extents of field and forest with which Benozzo has made green and beautiful the once melancholy arcade of the Campo Santo at Pisa; and the wild boar of silver which you use for a seal, or lock into a velvet case, is little likely to be so noble a beast as the bronze boar who foams forth the fountain from under his tusks in the market-place of Florence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
